1/2 way there.
5.2 miles, 50 degrees. Sunny. Cool.
Woken by the birds at 4:35 this morning. Rolled back over and waited for the alarm at 5:00. Got up, grabbed the dog and headed into the trails. Felt fine. Legs good. Head good.
I have a couple meetings today that could be very important. So, I don’t have much time to chat!
Took a loop through the meadow that got me closer to 5 miles than any loop yet. It’s a keeper.
Buddy was in a great mood this morning. Did I tell you he bit my brother? Yeah, my brother came over to give me a ride to pick up my motorcycle – which is running great btw – David, my brother went up to the front of the house where Buddy was leashed and somehow Buddy snapped at him and tore a big chunk out of his hand.
It’s strange, because they know each other. Buddy has spent extended periods hanging out at my brother’s house when Yvonne and I travel.
Buddy has gone almost completely deaf over the last few months. Maybe Dave surprised him. Border collies are watch dogs so they can be very territorial.
Buddy tends to hang back behind me on these morning trots. He likes to check out the bushes and eat the grass and small pine trees. He’s not as concerned with keeping up with the pack as he used to be.
I know how he feels!
Everything is greening up nicely. The days are at their longest. The sun comes up before 5:00 and there is still glow on the horizon when I hit the sack at 9:00 pm.
Summer time.
Ciao,
