Can you imagine the physical power you can harness

Glacier from the air at dawn
Yesterday wheels up at 5:55 AM.

 

Can you imagine the physical power you can harness if you chose to make hard decisions, to not procrastinate, and to make a habit of confronting difficult decisions?

Strongest winds i’ve ever seen at Lake McDonald

Lake McDonald waves
Yesterday about 1pm. Strong Summer winds out of the North.

 

Strongest winds i’ve ever seen at Lake McDonald, coming from the North.

Not only whitecaps, but crashing waves.

The 80-degree day turned to 70.

A bit chilly for Floridians.

Will that leave an imprint in your Glacier memories?

While our trip’s walking mileage has changed dramatically because we are recovering from the Highline Trail hike, we are still active.

We spent nearly three hours in a car yesterday crossing the border.

Our bodies have rested from a lack of hiking.

Rather than feel guilty or disappointed, we simply adapted to the hand we’ve been dealt.

Did you consciously observe how quickly and effortlessly we made the transition?

Bicycling from New York to Vancouver

Brad Wade is one of 20 bicyclists pedaling from New York to Vancouver.

When i spoke to him in the Lake McDonald valley, he estimated they’ve logged 3,000 miles.

He wanted to put his hat back on for the photo.

He said he hadn’t washed it in four months – although he does rinse it.

How do you think i went from the shyest kid to the most easy to talk to as an adult?

Are you taking notes?

How big a blessing is decent health?

Lake McDonald Lodge
Not enough steps for exercise.

Petunia’s have a wonderful Summer smell.

How big a blessing is decent health? (That’s your question here.)

Two nights ago i noticed a discoloration in my left pupil. A grayish crescent moon on the nose-side.

Google says high cholesterol is usually the culprit.

Runs in the Family.

Your great grandfather died of a heart attack at 60.

Your great grandmother had two strokes and afterwards always walked with a cane, and later, a crutch.

Google also said get it checked.

Tomorrow i’ll call.

Still nursing sore calves from our Highline Trail hike two days ago.

Never saw either one of these coming.

Here’s your question from the beginning: How big a blessing is decent health?
