Amazing Art Trails from around the World.

Good day!

Yesterday, while on my walk, I noticed that the highest mountain visible, Lolo Peak, now wears a white crown.

True autumn is here, but we remain warmer & dryer than normal.

I continue reading the novel aloud while trying to spare my voice.

Be everwell.

Trails

Good day!

Ill dash to the store, then pick up prescriptions because, some how, they always miss needing filled on the same day.

Then, the sun up, Ill walk.

The rest of the day, Ill review the Book1 text. Over halfway, Im still finding one ridiculous error per chapter.

Be everwell.

Went for a walk yesterday during my lunch break at work. It seems the around me got the memo that has arrived.

I love the cool air of , the way that the sun filters through and paints stripes of gold and shadow across the trails. The crunch of fallen leaves underfoot. Summer is great, but this is a welcome treat.

Good day!

Ive a flu shot scheduled for this morning after sunrise, then will pickup a prescription before my walk.

Then, its on to the book & checking for any errors ProWritingAid left behind (about one per chapter).

Im thankful for the editing system I created.

Be everwell.

I can't decide which common name for Vancouveria hexandra () I like more: white inside-out flower or duckfoot. The former satisfies my desire for common names to describe a thingthese flowers are white, and they really do look like they're inside-outbut the latter is so fun!

Good day!

A pleasant hike yesterday. I wish Id had time for an epic adventure, but it renewed me.
