Do Over Re Do Try Again

DO Over:

So I found myself writing an uninspiring post last week after complaining about how uninspiring KAFM has been. What A Phuc-N hypocrite! I wrote that post around the 5am time frame and was a bit complacent. When it comes down to it, my only hinderance is myself. Every Day Is Special

Wish I Could Post The Video 

RE Do:

Scored an opportunity, seven days later, I am off on the road again. Thankful for the Colorado Mountains, fortunate to have skills, and beyond stoked about my cycling freedom.

My accommodations here were quaint and just lovely. Even offered a nearly unused Weber BBQ for my outdoor cooking pleasure under a canopy of stars. I love standing outside while manning a BBQ. I previously dry rubbed a dead animal, seasoned some asparagus, and sliced potatoes for the grill. Life Is Good

My task at hand was fulfilling minor repairs and then laying down multiple layers of UV protection deck stain in trade of a couple of night stays and some cash. Some might view this as a job or that four letter word WORK. But for me, hustling these side jobs, I view it as a way for my body and mind living in sync and harmony.

TRY AGAIN:

I realized how my last post lacked the true nature of car camping. The descriptive beauty that encompassed me. I briefly mentioned the night sky but that post lacked overall pizazz. I only referred to skinny dipping but failed to mention the Crystal River's cascading sounds thoughout the valley. Such a pleasant way to fall asleep.

That Full Moon Friday Night was absolutely stunning. About an hour before the rise, the stargazing took my breath away. Satellites raced across the nighttime sky. Mr Moon illuminated the fluffy front of clouds approaching from the west and a thundering lightning storm took suit. Sometime around 3 or 4am came the hut shaking thunder. The kind of lightning bolts that allowed no counting for thunder. Awesome Sh*T

Not only my breath but time literally disappeared. I became rich with inspiration from all different angles. A full spectrum of thoughts and ideas rattled their way around my noodle. The energetic discharge sparked my imagination.

While sitting in the easy chair before the storm, gazing up towards the unseen galaxies, I found myself in a parasympathetic state of mind. Thinking alone but not excluding time away. I never wish time away. I am giving my best effort to not wish any days away. Its deeply systemic wasting away time. But its also a challenging endeavor to put myself in a position not to waste away time and energy. I Do Feel Grateful

Backwoods Tom,

Doing my best to learn something new there brother man. Thank you for your kind words and frank meanings. You are the only one that I know that post multiple times a day. I like that about you. Keep It Spicy Brother T

MagicEye And Mr Bill,

You two were rather responsive to my monochrome photo in the last post. I purposely took these black and white monochrome photos for you two. Thanx so much for corresponding with me over the years here on this magical blogging digital format. Plus, I always enjoy your photos and outings. Very Cool How You Both Are Able To Post Daily

Margret D,

The children are doing just fine and thanx for asking. I welcome you to my world and thanx for joining in recently. Your photos are wonderful and I can't thank you enough. Looking forward to your future postings.

Perth,

Wow, What Can I Say?!?!? You were one of my original followers and THANK YOU. I appreciate how you stream my radio shows and how you have engaged in my part of the world. Big Hugs!! May was truly full of ups and downs. You cracked me up with your comment " you exhaust us " and well timed humor for sure. I am pleased you enjoyed the series of photos but YOUR photographs are top shelf. And you post amazing photos EVERY Damn DAY. Very Impressive!! Again, thanx for having a listen while at work. P.S. Your Super Nurse Photo, Stellar

Stevenson And Tanza,

The both of you showed interest in my leftover sushi rolls. I often take all the leftovers in the refrigerator, add rice, and call it Budget Sushi. Sometimes I will add a can of tuna or splurge and add a white fish like tilapia or a flounder. S.Q., thanx for all of your positive feed back from over the years. Your novels always lift my spirits. Tanza, thank you for your informative insights. I feel as of you and I would talk the night away.

Sondra And Wendy,

You two gals enjoyed the photos and appreciated the Colorado Beauty. Sondra, you have been there. Wendy, you would love to be there. Sondra, your right, some goals "need a do over" and carry meaning. Excellent point you offer there. Thank You. Wendy, you are incredible. Your postings inspire so many and you just continue pressing on. I am looking forward to following along your 50k journey. You Will Prevail. And You Are Right, Just Go Hike

Andrew,

You my man, you are a classic. I wish we would have crossed paths during my many visits to your neck of the woods. Gotta think that the laughter would have been gut busting. I appreciate your honesty, travels, and overall good nature. Again, congratulations to you and R!! I sure enjoy reading about all the family dynamics, the stylish titles you have dished out, and even those simple little trips out for a coffee. Always Entertaining And Thank You

Kathy And Rydn9ers,

You two are rather new followers of mine and I do enjoy your postings. Completely different life styles and I am fascinated by both. You both offer inspiring reads in your own ways. 9er, hope to ride like the wind with ya some day. Thank You Both For Your Time

KB,

Lets be honest here. You know that I only follow you because of BLK Dog. I have never had the privilege of meeting BLK Dog but I cherish that guy so much. Your trail cam has certainly grown on me over the years and your wildlife footage is remarkable. Your tribe has also grown on me and I have mentioned it before, You Guys Are Inspiring. You two humans take such good care of your animals, you are always thinking outside the box, and reading the progress has been amazing. Your happy tribe is a reflection of your character. THANK YOU SO MUCH

Fillfionka And Jagglam,

You two are my newest followers and thank you. Somehow I landed on the Polish map and its been a pleasure following you as well. You two are so creative and I enjoy reading along. Its refreshing knowing a geologist is checking out my images. Thanx for checking in and adding your two cents. Very Welcoming

Natalia,

You are one crafty little lady in the kitchen. Very Impressive!! You display your craft in a very unique way and thank you for always adding in the English recipes. Always A Treat, Pun Intended. You made mention to the happy dog in the last post. Shadow Boy was my main man and passed away almost two years ago. He was a very happy dog!! And thanx for noticing my acrylic works as well.

Eileen,

You and your daily little critters are fascinating. Thanx for mixing in some shadow art as well. Your postings are always so peaceful and informative. I thank you for that and thanx for following along here as well. Looking forward to all of your Summer Time Captures. You also noticed the Boy Dog photo and he loved the water on his terms. I understand the old bones comment for sure. I have a decent bed roll but the hips usually wake me up throughout the nights rest. I'm not sure about your reference to the youth and C19. Your hikes have brought a smile to my face on a number of occasions. Keep putting one foot in front of the other. Plus, you have the perfect partner for it. Hike On
