The Tuatha de Danaan Keeper caravan are restoring the land around Lake Tahoe, distributing soil, planting trees and bushes and reintroducing wildlife, as well as decontaminating the Lake itself. (III, p. 27) The windows of the chief's headquarters shack are "...filled with a mountain." (VII, p. 64) and:
"A breeze gusted through, bearing odors of pine, noises of machinery." (ibid.)
Three senses: the view through the window, odours and noises. The odours remind us of the natural environment that is being restored while the noises remind us of the work that is being done to restore it. Succinct.
Chief Keogh is trying to arrange for Skip to meet Dr. Yvonne Canter. Her idea about communication with the Sigman apparently ties in with Skip's. Plot lines converge as they were going to have to. Will Skip leave Earth and meet the Sigman? I do not remember exactly.

Kaor, Paul!
Don't forget that amusing drawing of the Momgols casually made by Skip. The chief was so taken by it that it helped sway him to agreeing to help Skip.
Ad astra! Sean
