Good day!
I need to clean this apartment. Thats my side project this week.
Otherwise, life is routine. The weather has fallen into a pattern of pleasant days & cool nights. I walk, I edit, I plan my next hike, probably Friday.
I want this place clean by then.

Good day!
Summer days grow fewer
My time runs short for hikes requiring ample daylight.
But a beloved season nears. Too, autumn means publishing Book3.
This week, Ill pass the midpoint of my Book4 edit. My process is slow, but it works, & it teaches me a lot.

My life lies somewhere else.
Most of the time, Im a writer exploring the world of Ontyre. As far as Im concerned, its my second home.
The rest of the time, Im exploring this world, but in places where this worlds people dont go.

What a hike, what an adventure.
Ive long wanted to attempt this climb, but it was beyond me physically, so Ive waited.
Yesterday, I faced a long trek, overgrown gulch, & a steep ascent on an exposed ridge in the cold wind to reach this view.
Ignore my heavy breathing.

A new bike path is coming together in Crown Point. If I wanted, I can follow this and end up at the border monument at the state line plaza and continue onward to the Chicago Lakefront.

It dropped to 45F (7.2C) last night. I snuggled with Evie Cat beneath blankets & didnt want to get up.
Yesterday, it rained all day, which is unusual here.
Were going to return to seasonal soon, but it was sure a nice break from summer temps.

Good day!
The advantage of where I live is that I left home, went to the hospital, had my mammogram, and made it home in less than an hour.
And still its raining.
This is a true soaker rain, something I havent seen here in years. We really needed it.
Back to editing

I'm sore this morning! Biked 5 miles on Monday, 6.5 miles on Tuesday, then yesterday after biking 2.5 miles for some errands around mid-day I decided to go for a 20 mile in the evening! I really should've given it a rest day before going for such a long ride...
I think I'll aim for a 5 mile ride tomorrow, then I'm going to a bike event on Sunday that's a pretty short distance but it's near plenty of and whatnot that I can add on to make it longer

There are those in healthcare who have your best interests at heart.
There are those who view illness as good for business. Those people stole a third of my lungs& then my insurance paid minimally.
Thats cooperation.

Good day!
Today is another day of me racing against the clock to get everything done. Theres always a busier day waiting in the wings.
Go, go, go.
Until Friday, when Ill go on another hike because the weather will be cool & cloudy.
Then, finally, I can breathe.

Good day!
This is supposed to be our 2nd driest months of the year.
Instead, weve gotten rain every other day for the last week.
Dont get me wrong, we desperately need the moisture, & our temps are exquisitely cool.
Our normal weather patterns have disappeared.

So, heres a real image of spring encountering autumn, the wildflowers late in surviving, the red behind a preview of whats to come.
Contradictions. Like me.

Good day!
There are the places I go to experience awe and wonder.
There are the places I go to be by myself, because there, loneliness is merely time alone to think.
There are the places I go just simply to breathe.
I am so thankful for those places.

Good day!
I hiked yesterday.
I learned that autumn is whispering, but its silent in town, you have to venture into the mountains.
I also learned, yet again, not to trust the weather forecast. Cloudy with drizzle More like unrelenting sun.
Once home, it rained.

9 Places to Get Outside in Los Angeles via Atlas Obscura Lists Shared
With its beautiful terrain, perpetual sunshine, and temperate climate, Los Angeles is the perfect place to picnic, hike, garden, and meditate all year round.
You can explore the ruins of the old Los Angeles Zoo, nestled in among the hills of the famed Griffith Park, or take a trip to the location that served as Batmans secret hideout in the 1960s television series. You could take a more spiritual path by walking the labyrinth in the midst of a lush estate nestled in the heart of Los Angeles. And dont miss the secluded private garden in Beachwood Canyon, created by one woman and inspired by the Wizard of Oz, glittering with mosaics. So, bring your sunscreen, hiking boots, and your canteen of water, and check out the wonders of L.A.s great outdoors.

Our weather change came late yesterday with fanfare in the form of thunderstorms & heavy rain (for here).
It also brought cooler temperatures. The air coming through the windows is chilly.
Im weighing my desire to hike against the unstable weather.

This is our last day of relatively hot weather for at a short time. Our chance of rain increasing from zero to slight.
Good weather for hiking, for escaping to anywhere that isnt here, a place that will set aside troubles.
For a little while, anyway.

Like hiking to a high place, theres seeing when its all downhill.
Im a visual person. Charts, graphs, images, maps, & even a beautiful font, I love them all.
