Morning Rattle

 Out for a sit in the river 


Tossing a ball around in the river, Dixie ran over and investigated  a few floater’s in the river, Dixie waded out far in the river to creep some foam passing along the river for a bit.  


It looked like foam floating down river when I walked far out in the river but it looked like a dead πŸ’€ fish 🐟 from my chair and was concerning to say the least.


We met two other dogs named Patty and Brody

Very nice dogs 🐢 they were chasing a stick and Dixie was interested in. Chasing it with them.

And they had fun on the side of the river.


Walking back we see a rattle snake 🐍 warming up on the path.  Seemed like a normal thing for a snake to do in a early chilly πŸ₯Ά morning for a reptile that’s cold blood 🩸 is sit on the path to warm up.  It was not aggressive at all just sitting πŸͺ‘ in the sun you could see the rattle on it but it didn’t make it shake 🫨 at all.


We went to the river bottom at about 7-9 

Picked up a coffee after and sat out front the house for a bit.

We saw a friend from Brooks, a church friend while picking up coffee. We had to leave soon after cause the dog was still in the car 🚘 

But he asked how my dad was and if he was interested in a walk around the lake.

I told him we just got back from the river with a friend.

But he’s working at a bible camp lately these days doing clean up 🧹 πŸ•️ 



Dixie enjoying the water πŸ’¦ we stay there for two hours about.


Back home 🏑 drinking coffee ☕️.

Bryan’s a good friend and got me a coffee ☕️ 

After we get back Kim gives a rawhide for Dixie to chew

We sit out side and Dixie is busy with her treat not to bark.  An enjoyable morning

Plus 4 Celsius 6.1 km in a hour πŸƒ‍♂️

  Dixie and I go for a run  πŸƒ‍♂️ Dixie and I go for a run, redo a hill run down and up again. Kim picks me up after I climb the hill, I called her and asked since I was over my hour mark, originally I wanted to do 9 km in an hour but I managed to do six km instead.  I think it was the hill climb that did it.  I ran fully down hill no problem 😌 We made good time.  For a hill run πŸƒ‍♂️   It looks like it will be 13 Celsius by noon but it feels warmer in the sun. ☀️  I took a picture by the usual spot that judge where the river is from other years and with that rain the last couple days it definitely looks a lot better than what it was a few weeks ago Dixie went off leash for a bit and went to the river. Must’ve been cold. I think for April water dip. I managed to bring my VO2 max up to good 😊 today, it’s the first time I’ve put it in the green since owning my second Garmin. So my goal right now is to get an endurance score over 5099 To move past ...

Celebrating Ten Years and Living My Best Life🧘‍♂️ A Quiet Day at Home

  πŸŽ‰ Celebrating 10 Years Together Last night was a beautiful celebration of a decade spent with Kim. We marked our 10-year anniversary with a cozy dinner at The Keg, where I indulged in a hearty 20 oz steak and Kim opted for a more modest 8 oz cut. It felt so good to get out together and enjoy a special evening. We kept things simple—just water to drink, with fresh bread and salad to start. The atmosphere was perfect, and I soaked in every moment of our time together. We’re incredibly grateful for our families, who made the night even more special. My parents generously gave us cash to enjoy our dinner, and Kim’s parents gifted us movie money so we could extend the celebration. Their thoughtfulness reminded us how lucky we are to be surrounded by love and support. Family and friends made it sweeter We were so blessed by our families: my parents gave us cash to enjoy the night and Kim’s parents sent money for a movie treat. Our friends even gifted us a 20% tip card for the meal...

Night run 5 Celsius πŸƒ‍♂️

  Night run πŸƒ‍♂️ after work  Dixie and I get running at 11 pm at night.  After work I do a 45 minute run πŸƒ‍♂️ doing 5 km we started at 10:12. It was 5 Celsius outside and I felt warm running πŸƒ‍♂️  I’m sweat πŸ˜“ a lot less than I did when I started I’d be in a full soaked sweat πŸ˜… the last six months I’ve improved 450 plus percent  That’s a good feeling, I’m happy πŸ˜ƒ to say.  Making a difference in my life and how I feel. Journaling, exercising, reading… Hey guys, Uh πŸ™„ I was wondering if any of you had remedies for reducing  Eh um  πŸ˜ cough… The feelings of existential dread and facing and bearing the weight of the crashing realities of life. Do you think turmeric will help?!?! I ask myself is exercise really like meditation where you get brain clarity and pay more attention to books or life. All of a sudden a gym membership looks doable this morning  a February post I go to say. Both is doable.  Life and books You don’t need a gym mem...
