The Long And Windy Road That Leads To Your Door Will Never Disappear I've Seen That Road Before It Always Leads Me Here Lead Me To Your Door Many Times I've Been Alone And Many Times I've Cried Anyway You'll Never Know The Many Ways I've Tired And Still They Lead Me Back To The Long Winding Road You Left Me Standing Here A Long Long Time Ago Don't Leave Me Waiting Here Lead Me To Your Door
The Beatles
Let It Be 1970
WoW:
An older Mr Silver Sneaker pointed out one day, usually points out the obvious. He said that he used to have a cousin that hardly left the house and watched TV Movies all day long. Mr Silver Sneaker ask me," What do you see around here?" He points out that all he observes are alive people milling about. His cousin that was a homebody, died two weeks ago in their young 70's. I was speechless as I was unaware that we were shifting towards deeper waters. Thankfully, Mr Silver Sneaker rambled out and I was off the hook. Just Listening
Another two punches to the jewels this month was Olivia Newton John passing. Grease will forever lack that gumption it once had. Wait until Travola shuffles off this mortal coil. I am well aware that her passing was not a surprise but a bummer for sure. The other bummer was my friend/mentor John Parker passed at 83.
CYCLING:
So there is this bridge here in town that crosses over the Colorado River and I was lucky enough to cross this sucker the other day. What I noticed was the swift flowing currents, colorful birds singing, and the cool breeze from the south. Epiphany would be how many drivers miss out on these precious moments and observations.
Cycling around town as a way of commuting is a headspace changer. Rushing home after a long day of work while missing out on a vidid rainbow trout jumping out of the water because you you were "busy" is such a missed opportunity. Stumbling through the door with a smile could have been a prime example of how our demeanor is carried.
BIKE NIGHT:
Friday Bike Night's theme was Butterflies. Right up my alley of course and I sort of went all in. I mean Come On, BUTTERFLIES
Someone counted 146 riders, one wheel, and boosted board participants. Pure Righteousness
ORTHO:
Scored a new client and couldn't be happier. They are way in shape, just completed their two year dissertation, and carries the most amazingly strong nervous system. Best client in a long time!! They picked up the tracking quicker than I have ever witnessed.
Creating thoughts through action and patterns
RADIO:
Stream HERE to listen to the rebroadcasting of my show. This link starts with an ad and then Michael Travis ( Drummer For The String Cheese Incident ) converts you to Mormonism. Turn it up as its going to be a Freakers Ball.

- Document An Adventurous Ride
- Write Down Goals And Intentions

Your butterfly attire and your bike just made me smile. I hope after all that effort you got a prize for the best costume and decked out wheels. You deserved first prize. 🥇🏆PS: Please don't think Snow now. It's way too early! Let's finish enjoying Summer before we have to think of shoveling

Dearest Travis,
ReplyDeleteYou certainly do live in a gorgeous state! Wish I could have crossed over to the west of it more... But our views were magnificent too.
Haha, that Butterfly event was excellent with a great turn out!
Glad your Radio show gave you so much feed back and appreciation; well done.
Love the bottom photos with a happy dog walking!
Hugs,

I always love seeing Colorado scenery. I surprise myself at how much I like Colorado, especially as seen from an Amtrak train.
ReplyDeleteWe have three state funerals this week, Olivia Newton John, Judith Durham of the Seekers and local indigenous musician Archie Roach.
I think you told me to get fit and consider yoga class. I misheard too.
You look fabulous for the Friday bike ride.

So sorry to hear about the loss of your friend and mentor. Seems that as we get older, we start to lose more people in our lives. PS that song you shared isn't Let it Be...:p
ReplyDeleteLooks so beautiful by you. It is so much better to slow down and enjoy all that nature, isn't it?

I can’t imagine watching TV all day. So sad and misguided when all the real world is out there to explore, for all. Our UK TV is shite and by all accounts your North American is worse but seems hardly possible to be so.
ReplyDeleteKeep hitting the highways and byways my friend. You’re a long time dead, brain or body.

Butterfly Cyclists and Amazing Natural Views of Sublime Beauty, I don't think it gets any better than that. As for TV watching, I don't know how people do it endlessly, I get restless trying to get thru a show I really like on the rare occasion I can even sit still long enuf to watch TV. As for Radio, it ain't what it used to be, locally anyway we have lame DJ's and more than half the Stations now are Spanish, tho' some of the Music is good, I have no idea what they're saying since my Kitchen Spanish isn't sufficient for translation... even tho' some of my Family are Bilingual or speak only Spanish, I just fail miserably in my Old Age to take on new languages to fluency. I forgot how to ride a Bike, that's no Joke, I almost fell off a Senior Tricycle, it was highly embarrassing.

Olivia's death was a shock for everyone. My condoleances for the death of your friend, such losses are painfull and hard to overcome.
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand I find very exilarating the yoga board 😜
P.S: volunteer is one of the most beautiful goals and when not possible, donations can do too.
Stay well my friend!

Well, always join the living as long as you can, right?
ReplyDeleteMy 80+ y-o-neighbor lost his wife a while ago and despite being so sad goes out all the time, meets people, me included.
Better than TV, I´d say.
Reckon we´re getting old and have to witness idols and friends passing.
My FIL always says, you can get old, or just die.
Let´s get old!
And silly - mind you, no joking!!! I saw the first real butterfly of the year yesterday!!!
Great night-pics, too.
Pour a glass, oh, yes to that!
No. No snow. It´s still super-beautifully hot here - but looking forward to #4, cheers to you!!
