July 25, 2025

Friday. Left a little before then. Blacksmith. Overcast with some left-over dampness on the pavement. Gray skies, but undulating, and a bit of blue here and there, though it never cleared. The sun was close enough to make a nice area of white in the direction of the city, as seen from Gerverscop. There, and later, very good, clear views in the far distance under the gray canopy. Alendorp, rivierpad (wildflowers in front of the reeds and the corn), Breudijk, Gerverscop. Bright purple Loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria; grote kattenstaart) by the side of the canals here and there, and also clusters of low, little yellow flowers. Schutterskade, Galgerwaard, bridge-caused delay in Breukelen. Scheendijk, Veenkade (a koot with some teenage kids), Middenweg (a duck with some little ones), Herenweg, Oud Zuilen, Mos. Many people out on a mild summer day, but, other than stinking mopeds several times, never busy, thankfully.
