Cooler Temps!


I finally got to go hiking the other day. About 2-3 miles over a calm trail near the Absaroka Beartooth Wilderness - not too far from the Beartooh Highway near Red Lodge. We turned away from a stream crossing, not wanting wet feet, me, and running across wet rocks with a bum knee and bum hand, me. But that's okay. I did it. And it was good. Hot day, soaking wet with sweat, but that's okay.

Today we are at least 40° cooler than that heat wave of days past. Amazing weather flip with a storm the other day.

I saw the doctor about my hand today. Things still are improving, but the surgery was intense and it will take a year or more for it to be totally considered healed. Yep, a year. Bummer. I have no strength in my left hand. None at all, but I can finally grip things a bit. Cut my fingernails. Small victories.

OctoPrep is looking for another cheerleader - are you game? Let me know!
