Cassi Creek: The
weekend over, Loki and I resumed our morning Hike with Mike. We’ve settled on a 5 of 7 schedule that may
not be optimal for weight loss and maintenance, but that allows me two mornings
without an alarm clock waking me up.
The route we
walk is a two-mile segment (measured from our front door with a Garmin GPS) of
Cassi Road. It has an elevation drop of
200 feet on the outbound leg. This delivers
an elevation gain on the inbound leg.
Some mornings
we carry on a conversation on both legs.
On other mornings, we’ve little need to converse. Both of seem to use the hike as a
self-diagnostic to sort and examine the morning’s aches and pains. It’s a handy and cost-effective diagnostic
tool.
Some mornings
the traffic flow is dangerously fast and comes dangerously close to us. I can’t think of any mechanism to cause local
drivers to slow down and to pay attention to the road.
The GOP/teavangelist
convention will begin its program, political, social, and religious repression
in America tomorrow. I wish there was a
way to cause the general populace to recognize the lies and to dump the
American Taliban at the voting booth.
