Full moon, and third day of bad air; tomorrow is supposed to bring relief and markedly cooler temperatures, with the first chance of rain on Monday.
As I expected with all the new building nearby plus people eagerly throwing millions at the houses in the neighborhood and replacing aging residents with families, the park is madly crowded even without the summer day camps. Kids on bikes on the paths, babies and toddlers being taken for their constitutionals or going to and from the play areas, the dance group is back, and even more dogs. There's more litter, too. The one number that's down is the homeless; they appear to have been forced elsewhere.
