The light is shifting in both the morning and evening. The other day was Lammas, so cross-quarter. For some reason, I always feel the shift, even if it’s 90 degrees out. My walk this morning at 6 am was nice, and again, it’s just a tad darker. No one showed up, which was unusual. Generally, there is at least one or two people. So that was nice. I’m still not up to a full mile yet with my knee, but I’m getting there.
Today, I plan to go to the Auburn gym and then drop a load off at Goodwill. It’s a bit of miscellany from around the house. I’ll do another round when I get motivated to go out to the garden shed. Since Barclay died, I haven’t had much motivation with things, but I guess that’s normal.
My son and daughter moved the trailer to a new spot, so the tires aren’t in the same spot. I haven’t been out there yet, but I will go out today. I also need to continue taking things out, like dishes. I won’t get rid of them because our plan is to get the tent trailer, so we’ll need stuff for that. I think the ease of pulling a tent trailer will suit my daughter and me.
We started watching the New Star Trek, with Captain Pike. It’s really quite good and really keeps to the Star Trek theme. It’s on Paramount, if you’re interested. I also watched the PBS production of Patience. It’s really a rerun of the French Astrid, but I enjoyed it. I also finished watching Murder on an Island, which takes place off the coast of Canada near French Quebec.
It’s my son’s birthday this week. 31 yo. Where does the time go?? He was a wonderful child, and he has grown into a wonderful young man. There are 9 years between my daughter and him, and he was a BIG surprise. I remember saying, I’M WHAT??? I was almost 42 when he was born.
Well, what things are you up to these days? I read a few blogs, but not as many as I used to. I do love peeking into other people’s lives. I guess that’s why I was a psychology major in college, and counseling in graduate school, and clinical psychology in a doctoral program, which I didn’t finish. No regrets, it was all a journey.

I’ve never really tracked the mid-season cycles, but I have noticed the change in light. it’s interesting to realize the first day of Fall is now closer than the first day of Summer.
It’s interesting to watch. Barclay had all the spots marked on the property where it was the summer solstice,winter etc.
Love your last line: “No regrets, it was all a journey.” Beautiful.
Well, hindsight is 20/20 that’s for sure.
agree about the shift in daylight, notice it too, it may not be much but i know now times are a changing….
what am i up to? Looking to explore the world again, having recently been to st georgenburg monastry for a retreat…the landscape was wonderful, did some climbing, but it was strangely a bit characterless. The monastery was lovely, the monks were welcoming, and well educated and great to talk to, and the singing was superb. But it just fired up a desire to see more varied stuff…more culture, more variety.
And also, i have become quite a chap…now a nice suit, tie, pocket square and panama hat…
You really are the traveling man!!
It is a Journey; you’ve got that right.
