The weather was near perfect for sitting outside during knit night at The Northstar Café. I enjoyed a Thai burrito and made good progress on my scarf.

Cranked up My Morning Jacket's Z on the way home, caught up in the reverberating riffs that seem tailor-made for a cool late summer night.

Tuned into Obama's convention speech and felt some hope restored. I'll be honest, the political season tends to get me down, especially with all the pettiness, bitterness, and flat-out nonsense. At least for one night that vanished.

And Radiohead made a live stream available of their last U.S. date on this leg of the tour.

Smooth sailing at 64 degrees on a late August evening. All is well.
