day report

[calimac]

Sunday is a good day for B. and me to take a more elaborate walk than the usual quick trip down to our local park and creek to look for ducks and lizards. So we drove to a park in a canyon in the hills that I had passed by but never visited. It has a pleasant paved trail, much of it shaded, along a creek in the canyon, which, amidst characteristic local scenery - oaks, sycamores - passes by a community garden, a 4H barn with bleating goats and sheep, and a club area with pool, cafe, picnic area, and golf course, before abruptly and unexpectedly terminating with an under-construction, do-not-enter sign. We turned around and went back, and that was about long enough. Every time we passed a woman with children, B. wished her happy Mother's Day. We stopped at a farmer's market on the way home and found early cherries.

Now occupying time at home, watching, on DVD, two episodes at a gulp of the first season of Orphan Black, a Canadian SF/detective show of which we'd heard good things. Further reaction when we finish, but so far I'm thinking mostly that this is what I had been unsuccessfully hoping that Ringer would be more like, and with better acting.

We saw the first episode, back before chorale got overwhelmed by schoolwork, and it's on our list to watch more of; it looked promising. But we're also hoping to work our way through Sherlock, season two, and get back to Being Human. We just don't seem to find it easy to make time for video, not even good video.
