5. So hot in the sun. Energy today seems low. No sleep, I’m sure.

6. Thirty-six days.

7. “It’s pretty nice to be talented. If you are, enjoy, but it won’t take you that far. Work takes you a lot further.”
   ― Natalie Goldberg

9. Everyone is gone again. It’s just the two of us. I guess we better get used to this.

10. A tomahawk is very large.
