Once More

Part 1

Another fine morning. Out early and it wasn't too hot.

I like being out early because their are a lot fewer people on the trail. There were only a handful of folks before 7:00 am. The bicycles don't start showing up until around 7:30.

This week there were a lot of bicycles again. Some of them are fine, but there are some who don't observe the rules of courtesy and could be the cause of accidents as a result.

The air was cool, but the ground was warm, so there was a lot of ground fog in the low spots. It was really pretty with the cloud hanging so near the ground. It just sort of glowed and then it would move as the air currents dipped into the valleys. I wish I could take a photo of it, but the film (or the digital caputure)can't really show the reality of what it looks like in person. I think it is due to the light refraction through the cloud - or something. At any rate, I am unable to take a decent picture of it.

I walked the full 7 miles today and finished in just under 2 hours. It was pleasant, but I was so hot when I finished I couldn't wait to get home for a shower.

Part 2

I had theatre tickets for "Boeing, Boeing" for last night. It was a good show, but a late night. The man in the seat next to me (not my guest - the one on the other side) was figiting all through the show and was taking up more than his fair share of space. By the end of the evening I was feeling very stiff and uncomfortable.

When I got up this morning, my left leg was really hurting. I may have torn the ligament in the back of my calf. I didn't walk today and will be treating this injury until I'm feeling better.
