1/7
September 4, 1983, 41 years ago today: The AT bypassed the cliffs which towered over the pond, but there were several great viewpoints atop rock outcrops along that climb, overlooking an immense, L-shaped valley encircled by the lofty, wooded heights of Mount Wolf, Mount Kinsman, and several of their spur ridges.
Good day!
The smoke has retreated, but when it was here it created the eerie scenes I enjoy writing.
This mild morning, Ill walk, then tackle various tasks.
Yesterday, I picked up my inhaler, which makes all that I do possible.
Be everwell.

Time to go hiking every weekend.

September.
Publishing, so long a whisper, grows a bit louder this month.
Anxiety grows because of the perfectionism I must tamp down, the insidious fear of making a single mistake that was installed in me so long ago.
I climbed a mountain. It wasnt perfect, but reached the top.

Good day!
Cooler day for resting after a great hike when I even went off trail and climbed. It was glorious.
And challenging.
It was such a great feeling to push myself in such a beautiful location that I almost cried. More to come.
