River Bottom days off

 I couldn’t interest anyone to go.


I tried to interest a few people to go to the river bottom but no takers.  I get down there and it’s a different place in Lethbridge.  It’s like a different part of the globe.  I pull out my umbrella ☂️ to keep from the heat but over all I sun bathed for a bit easily to.


Dixie had a blast she socialized with a dog name Axel

As me then two other labs that came down later in this photo.


Dixie would run away about half way and wait for the dogs to run her direction but before they new it they were to far away doing there own adventure.


I got so much sun I practically passed out when I got home and I was asleep 😴 before eight.

I couldn’t take the heat and the sugar Kim got me and Dixie.  She got us Dairy Queen. Dixie loved it even gave me some space after Kim showed her she had ice cream for her.



Kim got a banana split I got a blizzard πŸ₯Ά but after I could barely keep my eyes open.

I layed in bed so the room wouldn’t spin and just fell asleep.


I also didn’t really have any supper with the ice cream 🍨 so that could of been a culprit also.




The river bottom was a great way to spend a day off, to bad it’s raining today or I’d be down there again.  Yet the rain here is a good thing. I could only imagine out east like in Toronto they’d neeed it also on how smoky it is out there also.

Well everywhere as you read that Canada πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ Canada 🍁 is on fire.  So more rain the better.

But since I got dizzy and passed out last night from my day I never mowed my lawn and today was going to be that day but it’s raining.  It should lighten up  soon so I’ll be ready for do it tomorrow or in the afternoon 


A beautiful day yesterday 



Dixie one in the water πŸ’§ laughing having a good time.

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...

Gratitude, Good Food, and Good Books

 A Thanksgiving weekend of family meals, long walks, and reaching 86 books this year Bryan and I headed out for a walk after he returned from his sister’s Thanksgiving gathering, settling into a steady 30‑minute pace that carried us just under 2 km. The air was crisp with a light breeze, the kind of weather that makes movement feel effortless. I’ve always loved these cooler temperatures—my body doesn’t have to work as hard, and the transition from “easy mode” into a gentle warm‑up felt natural. Carrying 30 pounds with me added that extra layer of challenge, but it blended seamlessly into the rhythm of the walk. We paused at a park bench along the way, taking a moment to sit together before snapping a photo. That small break reminded me how these walks are as much about connection as they are about distance or weight carried. The combination of fresh air, conversation, and the grounding presence of the season made the outing feel restorative. It wasn’t just a walk—it was a reminder...
