Monday. Left around 12:15. Still cold, also damp. Light winds out of the southeast. A weak sun early on, but it got covered mostly by gray-white clouds--nothing solid, but no real rays making it onto the fields. Pavement not dried out, and in some places plain damp. In the city, fresh salt had been put down. Leidseweg to de Meern brug and Zandweg. Some daffodils. More daffodils in Harmelen. Into the wind toward Achthoven. Meerlobrug to Nedereindseweg. In the very small canals there was still some left-over ice. Jutphaas to Plofsluis to Heemskerk. Looking east from there, a preposterous digital billboard alongside the freeway, as if the business park itself wasn't bad enough. Wayen and Mereveldseweg back to the city. The Greenland story gets more farcical by the day, except that it's deadly serious. It is clear now that the president does not feel inhibited by anything. Still, we are all impatiently waiting for enough Republican senators to test this proposition, and soon.
