This amazing shot shows Phoenix as its chute brakes entry velocity on its descent.  A camera aboard the Mars Reconaissance Orbiter took the shot. 

A muggy day, cool enough, but I’m tired.  Wore myself out getting down on myself in my dreams.  Need a nap.  Things go better with sleep.

Amended soil around the one juniper stump I pulled and worked on a second one.  No joy yet.  I’ll get it, just takes patience.
