Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)
Tipping our hand on Grat #9 we’ll say, cohostinae Lisa has the talent and ability at the writerly thing to create TToT posts that while impressively minimalistic are both engaging and satisfying to read. While that level of skill is receding in ambition’s front-view mirror at a rate to blur the eyes and disturb one’s vision, we’ll give it a go this Weekend of Viral pharyngitis.*
Photo above? One of the few excellent things about winter: sea smoke. (Photo from our tv dialed into a live web cam at the ferry landing at Vineyard Haven on Martha’s Vineyard.) Only with the right conditions and cold do you get to see it, as it is pretty much limited to the Arctic or Antarctic.

9) Being healthy enough to catch a cold bad enough to justify taking the day off but not so bad as to be a matter of concern (aka vacation clark-style! lol)

Sea smoke. Living coastal my whole life, how could I have missed that treasure?
Or did I??
Day off. Rare for a clark, so indulge. Gargle with warm salt water. At first tickle of throat or threat of feeling “not quite right”, begin gargling the warm salt waters no less than 2x a day. So says “Dr.” Farley, lol.
Hope you’re feeling better soon.
Thanks for the Huey. One of my favorite HL songs.
I do hope you recover quickly (although sometimes it is nice to have an excuse to stay home).
Sea smoke is kind of like fog rising up from the water? We get that on our lake, because the water is cold year round. Not as dramatic as yours, of course. I do love ferry rides….
yeah, fairly specialized conditions here with oceans as they tend to stay warmer in the winter than our freshwater bodies
