Good day!

I slept latest than usual. I’m exhausted, though for good reason.

When you’re faced with a task that you know you can do, that you enjoy, and that you know will have real results, you’re willing to push yourself.

That’s hard to find.

Be everwell.

Good day!

The first half of this morning’s walk was into a bitterly cold wind. On the way back, the sun emerged and the air became quite mild.

The only ones who didn’t seem to mind were this happy couple. I can see what she sees in him. He’s a smart dresser.

Be everwell.

Good day!

We went from early summer to late winter in a day.

Yesterday morning on my walk I wore the least amount of clothes I have all year. This morning I’ll have to bundle up.

It’s the roller coaster that is spring.

It meant Evie Cat snuggled last night. 😺

Be everwell.

Good day!

The old forest wasn’t dark and full of shadows. At least, I didn’t get that impression.

Instead, it lacked the darkness of hatred and the shadowed judgment I’ve come to know all too well.

It had required effort to find acceptance, what should be effortless.

Be everwell.

Good day!

Our mini heatwave peaks today when we could reach 80F (26.6C) for the first time this year.

The nights, though, remain chilly.

This is the time of year when I don’t run heat, and don’t need a fan. I just open the windows at night and cold air invades.

Be everwell.

Good day!

Another day in May, the month where my goal is always to reach June.

Thus, I try to distract myself.

The past does not serve me, but instead serves the tragedy that is May, the best of its memories bittersweet.

If only I could spend it sleeping.

Be everwell.

Early afternoon vs. now.

(The only problem was after I cleaned them and had them stand outside in the shadow to dry, they ended up full of pollen 2 hours later, so I had to clean them again...)

To escape the loneliness
in the city,
she went into the wilds
to be alone.

It was strange how it helped.

May 9, 1983, 43 years ago today: Dave and I had lunch in Bly Gap, just across the state line into North Carolina. One state down and eleven to go.

Good day!

After a hike, I’m always sure to do yoga to prevent stiffness, then walk the next morning.

I was rewarded this morning. The lilacs are starting to bloom, George the squirrel came out to see me (he received an extra peanut), and there were deer.

Be everwell.

Good day!

I’m kinda insane, so I headed out for an ambitious hike, though not far. This view begins with home viewed through the trees.

10.5 miles (19.9k), 2,470 feet of elevation gain (753m).

The wildflowers were just starting to bloom. I also found patches of snow.

Be everwell.

Good day!

I found this alien skull…

Or is it a replica of the Nautilus?

I never know what I’ll find when I head out that few have ever seen, as opposed to what billionaires produce for the masses.

There are those who’d steal OUR public lands. They BELONG to the people.

Be everwell.

Good day!

Went to the library this morning. It’d been too long.

I literally can go from my door, down the Milwaukee Trail, and then take a spur trail to the crosswalk outside the library, including crossing the river on a pedestrian bridge.

Round trip? 5.2 miles (8.4k).

Be everwell.

May 7, 1983, 43 years ago today: And then, disaster struck. Last night, swarms of mice, the only permanent inhabitants of almost every Appalachian Trail shelter, staged a mass assault upon my backpack. Dave, more experienced than I, had put his food in a stuff sack and hung it from a nail projecting out from a rafter beneath the shelter roof.

67 years ago, a breech birth, a “blue baby,” I wasn’t expected to survive the day.

I won’t keep you in suspense about how that turned out.

Beyond that, I’ll spend the day with Evie Cat and my characters, my family.

Be everwell.

Good day!

Deadwood, especially dried-out and bleached deadwood in alpine country, becomes art.

When I’m in the high country, it has a way of calling out to my imagination, but it’s whispers.

It says, “What do you think? Is this working?”

Yes, Mother Nature, always.

Spinach has returned!

I went food shopping yesterday morning and stopped dead in my tracks.

Beloved spinach (frozen).

It hasn’t been available here since last October.

I anticipated having it all day, and then, in the evening, I had my glorious spinach.

Be everwell.

Good day!

This mix of moss, pine needles, and plants I’m not familiar with was my trail on my last ridge hike.

Since was no real trail, it was impossible not to walk on what was softer than any carpet I’ve ever encountered.

This was a spot with few needles.

Be everwell.
