CYCLING:

Not all that impressive and even worthy of mentioning but here are some pathetic numbers by my standards. 

Miles - 232 / 373kms

Hours - 26

PR's - Zip Zero Nada Not A Chance 

Most of my rides have been phone call induced. Or they have been fierce headwinds both ways. It's that time of year when our pressure gradients are in full motion. 

ORTHO:

My latest sessions in the office have been tremendously fascinating. A young vibrant kid was struggling with a shoulder problem and plays High School Baseball. Now, I can't say for sure, we experienced a clunk with their collarbone / clavicle, their shoulder issue melted away. Was it because of the neck / Cervical Spine work, Maybe. Was it the shoulder blade / Scapula, Maybe. Was it the Rib 1 or 2, maybe Yes. Maybe No

Another client inquired about a neuromuscular massage session and we agreed on a pay rate and scheduled the session. Talk about outstanding and rather enjoyable for me as the practitioner. This style is painful for the client but produces very desirable results. I slowly move from the origin of the muscle to the insertion point. As I move step by step through the belly of the muscle, the client contracts the muscle with each stopping point of mine. Example; The Quad - my elbow is just above the knee, they breathe, they contract the quad muscle and release, I only move my elbow superior about an inch, they contract the quad and release, I move my elbow another inch, and we repeat this process until I am near the hip joint. 

RADIO SHOW:

I am hosting another edition of the Magic Carpet Ride in May and I am beyond fired up. My plan is to highlight Rod Serling's Twilight Zone. Finding clips from famous or well remembered shows has been such a rush. Passing on some of them because they are more visual than dialog painted for the radio listeners. But the clips I have edited so far, Oh Baby!!! 

As a clip rolls across my feed, a particular word will jump out like a jack in the box springing up and saying PICK ME PICK ME. Such as, a scene with a guy's journey, Ramble On by Led Zeppelin. Right?? I can't wait and will post links and dates soon. 

RANDOM:

Interesting Bluegrass Bash last weekend out in Palisade. The highlight by far was the attendees. Everyone was smiling, dancing in the rain, and sharing hobbies from the past two years. So many creative people in the world. No Fox News Sh*T, No Me Me Me Issues No Drunken Storm Offs 

Bluegrass gatherings offer unquiet vibes and everyone is simply there to be there. When the rain fell, we danced. When the band was picking, we danced. When the after hours acoustic jams happened, we danced. So Needed

And just how can it possibly be May 2022?? Seriously, how are these calendar pages ripping away so quickly?? This dog's face in the above photo encapsulates my feelings about time flying. 

Baseball is back in full swing and I personally enjoy listening to the game on the radio. I obviously do not sit and watch games but radio games are perfect background noise while working. And it is interesting while I am installing flooring or hanging drywall and an old Silver Sneaker pops in to check on me and they immediately go back in time and begin reminiscing. All kinds of old engrams roll up and discharge from their mouths. Its Flipping Fascinating 

While house sitting, friendly neighbors, because they needed something, walked over and asked if I would have a look at their irrigation system. Everything was super basic and I happily went to work. Most of their sprinkler heads were clogged from last year slit, no breaks in any lines, and their system fired right up. Really didn't think much of it and they told me that WD Yards charged them $165.oo last year to start up their system. Breaks my heart hearing that. Hate it when others take advantage of others. So the next day they asked me if I would care for a pie from Pablo's Pizza. Of course I told them that it was unnecessary but I do love a hot fresh pie. That night, taped to the box of my Thai Style Pizza was an envelope. Inside that was a cool crisp C-Note. Dinner and Cash!!!!! Why Thank You!!!!!

Time Again, This Time Lapse Was Seven Years Ago!!!! I was a press operator back in the early 2000's when I first moved to GJ. My old boss asked me to run a job, trim it out, and package it for shipment back in 2015. So I set up the old GoPro and captured the moment in time. 

Lead With Your Heart,

Cheers
