   UC San Diego along with ALERT California have been training AI to spot smoke from their lookout cameras. The combination of human eye and AI was very successful this past summer in spotting fires in central California when they were only a few acres in size and could be stopped with minimal crews and equipment.

   Since Georgia titled this arc “Sophie’s Summer Adventure”, I don’t think she is done with us yet. I hope that:

   1. Violet cuts the power again just as the bathroom door is opened (remember, Violet said she wanted to)

   2. Gutter sweeps down from the ceiling vent on the grappling hook to help Sophie out of TW’s house

   3. Sophie makes her way home through the woods with Gutter’s help meeting new friends along the way ( a big confidence boost for her)

   4. the robber mice grab Li’l Starfish Squeaker before they leave and return it to her at home

   Re: ants and hummingbird feeders. I had a problem with ants getting past the ant moat so I tried vinegar. Vinegar will destroy the ant’s “scent trail”. Fill the moat and let it evaporate (the hummingbirds don’t like the smell of it either), then hang your feeder from it. I’ve had no problems for the past year.

   My cats have no leaves to fight this year. We had an invasion of red-humped caterpillars this year who consumed 99.9% of the leaves on both liquid amber trees. There’s nothing left but stems and sticker balls.

   There was a National Geographic special on tv last night about the air traffic controllers in Gander who had to “clear the skies” of all traffic coming from Europe. They had to convince pilots that all air space in the USA was closed, convince pilots that they couldn’t just fly to a major Canadian airport instead of their destination, order them to get in line to land at Gander (or one of seven regional airports in the area) NOW, and find parking spaces for all those huge planes. It was a fascinating program.

   Don’t forget that Georgia’s surgery threw her timeline off by at least two weeks, so we might continue to see Jules in August this year.
