I always have to go stand and look at it for a moment before heading out the door. I love that this rainy season really has been rainy &#8211; it wasn\u2019t so rainy last year. But we\u2019ve had many days where it\u2019s rained for a good part of the day, and I love it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This week was short, of course, after the 4th. We watched \u201cThe Morning Show\u201d with Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon and really enjoyed it. We need suggestions for what\u2019s next. I read a pulpy book this week (\u201cUnraveling Oliver\u201d) and started \u201cTheir Eyes Were Watching God\u201d today (gotta love the DC public library). I\u2019m trying to read more \u2014 I really have not been reading enough for many years. Blame the internet, blame my eyesight, blame not feeling like I have enough time, dunno, but I\u2019m trying to pick back up. I read constantly as a kid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve really had a surge of COVID cases the last few weeks here in Liberia &#8211; hopefully it will die down soon, but so few people are vaccinated. We\u2019re pretty much back into \u201chunker down\u201d mode and we\u2019re still at skeleton staffing at work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>James and Marybeth spent the 4th at our condo in Hot Springs and sent this great photo &#8211; can\u2019t wait to get back there!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"180\" height=\"320\" src=\"http:\/\/www.criplomats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/1A56D8D7-F2E8-4FF6-91C6-394031D1D2A1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6389\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.criplomats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/1A56D8D7-F2E8-4FF6-91C6-394031D1D2A1.jpeg 180w, http:\/\/www.criplomats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/1A56D8D7-F2E8-4FF6-91C6-394031D1D2A1-169x300.jpeg 169w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 180px) 100vw, 180px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On the days when it\u2019s not pouring down rain as I\u2019m about to leave the house (and it\u2019s been raining a lot!), the morning light over the Atlantic has been really lovely!
