  No one joined me for a walk at Hart-Miller on Monday. Conditions - mostly
to very sunny, warm to very hot, breezy to very windy. Water level in the
south cell is slightly lower. Because of the holiday last week it has been
two weeks since the last visit and the changeover from spring to fall
shorebird migrants.
