The first day of winter was beautiful ― mild, calm, and clear. Have spent the whole day surveying along the coast.
In this calm weather it was a real pleasure. Although we did not see the sun today, the mountains were covered with a pinkish light. In a short time this too will disappear.
[On this day Gran had a routing medical check, showing that his measurements were: 5’ 11", waist 31 ½", chest 40", weight 13st 3¾lb [84kg] ]
