River fun after work

 Bryan and I sit in the river after I finish work


I hardly see Bryan very much but he blessed πŸ˜‡ me with his company at the riverside and we tossed a stick and a ball ⚽️ 

The dog πŸ• got completely wet and rub up against my legs 🦡 and I even took

My shirt off and lie down in the river. Bryan sat down in the river, with his yellow shirt πŸ‘•.  He told me it could get wet. 

There where many other chairs πŸͺ‘ and people sitting in the river and tossing balls in the water for there dogs.  We even had a stick float down from other dogs playing stick and the dogs πŸ• πŸ• let the stick float away and Dixie started playing with it. It made it easier due to that I didn’t have to get up to retrieve the ball floating down stream when Dixie gave up on it. She knew I wouldn’t let it float on by so she let me chase it then make a dash for it when I got close to it.

The stick is just coax her staying your letting your stick float away and she let it go by then make a run for it. 

I’d cheer  for her to bring the stick back we did this for a good 😊 20 minutes with a stick and 20 minutes with the ball.


A seagull flew over looking for fish 🐟. Or maybe πŸ€” it was a hawk or falcon. It looked for prey it seem gliding over. 

Some dogs walked by with a lady and her 3 πŸ• dogs. Dixie explored to say hi when they passed our river bank.

The grass is still green everywhere in the

Coulee is wild with life. That burst of rain 🌧️ we had well into spring to summer was making things greener.


We stayed by the river for 50 minutes and sat in the riverside for

Maybe πŸ€” ten minutes.

Just before we left. I then had to go in the water against to get Dixie wet. Cause she had to be wet going back to the car or the walk gets very hot πŸ₯΅ on the ride home 🏑.


It’s okay walking there cause we just go straight to the πŸ’¦ water.


Bryan and I walking back to the vehicle πŸš—.


A sunny day and a terrific time.

I think I may stay down her for a bit. On my time off.

We had a range of emotions wishing for more time, more to excuse mental outburst and we had to agree with each other’s days like today are worth to be grateful ☺️ for wonderful days.

Not resentful.

Im reading a book πŸ“• on religion and a Roman once said you’ll never get nice days like this if you were to die today.

- talking to a martyr.

It sounds like you had a lovely time by the river with Bryan and Dixie! It's great that you were able to relax and enjoy the sunny day. Taking some time off by the water sounds like a wonderful idea for some relaxation.

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...
