The morning started out bright as the dawn sky was already on full display. Analogous colors radiated out from the sun’s path: Red, orange, yellow, cream, light green, light blue, blue and dark blue sky. The rabbits were grazing on the field and Labrona was grazing by the basketball court near the baseball field. the half moon was in mid sky, there were sparse stratus cirrus clouds in the Southwest sky and some alto cirrus clouds in the mid sky. As the morning progressed, the skyy got brighter and the analogous colors turned to pastel colors and the alto cirrus clouds were tinted with peach color. the rabbits left the field and Labrona and her rabbits continue to graze. As the sun rise, it brightened the sky and warmed the air. Jon came by the sewing room to pick up the hemmed pants and delivered another 16 dozens pants that need hemming. Completed walking 6 miles at 8:10 AM, in 1 hour 11 minutes and 28 seconds. Average walking times were: 11 minutes and 55 seconds per mile (milla) about 5 miles per hour and 1 minute and 59 seconds per lap (vuelta). the pace was pretty fast as I worked up a sweat.
