Musings

Today was an almost day. As in: I almost went for a walk; this is almost a flag; the photo was almost taken today (it’s from our mountain snorkeling adventure); and, we almost had a Buddha bowl dinner.
And that’s enough almosts.

Glow before full sun.

Effect of full sun.

This brought happy memories.

This brought none…because: no pool. Heh. Reasonably clever name, though.

This image makes it seem like I was out while it was still dark. Or only a bit light out. You decide; it was 7:19am.
My fitness device (FD) is dying. It can no longer properly record an “activity,” that is, an exercise session. Lasted almost 14 months. Thinking about getting an Oura. Or going FD-nekkid.

Designed and intentional: Ford Fairlane 250 logo.

Unintentional: black hose coil into an unplanned snake.

We went up in the mountains.

To a lake.

Where D and I did some snorkeling! It was cool and lovely and beautiful. And fun.
We also enjoyed a picnic before looping through over another ridge before returning to Inside the Perimeter™.

Days are getting shorter. Sigh.

Caught my eye. Even though the sun wasn’t quite up yet.

Ah, there’s the sun. Time to head home.

The sun found me soon after I began the return leg of my walk. Hot and humid air, with dry, dry soil. [Using dishwater on the basil, BTW.]

We realized we had a bit of cabin fever (the hot-weather, summer kind), so we took off on a unplanned route west and north from The City. Don’t remember seeing this corner-Stacey before. Guess that’s one reason to take a Sunday drive.

Our loop was long enough that we needed a necessary break…right by the Visitor Center for the Kennesaw Mountain Civil War National Park of Parks. The entrance is disguised by vegetation (like this American beautybush) and a new (decorative) split-rail fence that a goat could push over in about thirty seconds. You can see both on your next visit. And cannons.

I’m pretty sure I had a half-dozen clever ideas to blather about, but, now that the keyboard is beneath my fingers, pfft.
So, the mundane. In the early morning low humidity, I actually got out for a push-push walk, prior to the arrival of the sun and sweatiness.
Title drips sarcasm? Drip, drip.

Our gardenia is making a second go at blooming (inhale: mmmmm), even despite the heat.

Had my final turtle time. This is an oblique way of indicating that I saw the foot surgeon for my two-year checkup, and got a fine bill of health. One foot’s worth, anyway.

Subsequently, we celebrated (?) by running the pickup through the carwash to get the accumulated tree gunk removed. The trade-off with having a shady place to park it is that gravity turns it into stained artwork. For now, it’s silvery superb.
