It was a day with little incident. I lay in for a little while this morning reading, and then spent the rest of the time until lunch working on my own things in the office. Omelan was watching drag racing when I went in for lunch, which I had never seen before.
Our trip to the mountain was brief but pleasant. On the way down, I showed Omelan the back road that goes via Pampa la Bola where the other experiments are located. We passed our friends the policemen on the highway near the Bolivian border but they did not make pursuit.
It continues to get colder. In town during the day it is still quite pleasant, but the nights are cold, and it was bitter on the mountain this day. If I had more free time, I might devise an apparatus for automatically turning the pages of my book so I could keep my arms beneath the warm covers when I am reading in bed.
