Tuesday.
The conference continues. We talked about what is happening in the
profession, OMB Circular A-133 audits, marketing, and communications.
After the conference, Judy and I went back to Red Rock Canyon for a dinner
picnic. Got an entire family of chukar. Sas phainopepla, ladder-back
woodpecker, raven, coopers hawk, cactus wren, rock wren, and a wild burro
encounter. A very loud wild burro encounter.
The sleeping weather is good. It's over a hundred every day, but it cools
off into the eighties after dark. We set the air conditioning on sixty-four
and open the windows above our heads. By morning, the outside air has
cooled off to sixty and the air conditioning has stopped running. For that
part of every day we get cool clean unconditioned air.
Got back to the motorhome and was looking through the bird list and
discovered that chukars aren't on it! 299! A whole family of big chukars
and little baby chukars.
299!
