This one took work to get out and want to run today but this the next few days I am thinking I won’t find time. So the plan was just to get some millage in but ended up with what I probably hoped for on these tired legs. I will say I was thankful for a very entertaining podcast and their guests to keep me moving.

Got out early to run this morning to enjoy the cool weather. My legs didn’t enjoy it as much as I did but that is ok I wasn’t in a rush.

Sun sets over a tranquil lake, with orange and yellow hues lighting up the sky, surrounded by silhouetted trees and grassy fields reflecting the colorful twilight.

It was good to get out after work today for a run but maybe eating dinner first wasn’t my best idea.

Trees frame a lush green field with tall grass, while the sun sets, casting a warm glow on the horizon, creating a serene, tranquil atmosphere.

Decided to make a fire tonight at the camper. It was nice and sat out for a while with the dog until the wet wood won out and we headed back inside to watch the Olympics. A circular firepit with moose and tree silhouettes holds burning logs, dispersing warm light in the dark.

Nothing like a new Coffee day to kick start the day. I was pleasantly surprised as I really enjoyed this segfault medium roast from Terminal.Shop. ☕️

The plan was 6 but ended up with 10 miles this morning. It rained a little but that really didn’t matter I was soaked at the end anyway.

A gravel path extends forward, surrounded by dense green foliage and trees arching overhead, creating a serene, forested tunnel-like environment.

Was hoping there was rain in those clouds on this run this morning but no luck. So just hot and humid again.

A calm lake reflecting a partly cloudy sky is surrounded by lush green grass, tall reeds, and dense forest stretching into the distance.

I think the dewme.app nailed this on this runand matches this pond… “86°F ☀️ Dew pt.: 70°F | RunFeel™: (4/10) stifling 🤢.”  Glad it got the miles in but you could tell when the heat hit me.

A pond sits still, covered in green algae, surrounded by dense, leafy trees under a clear blue sky, with plants in the foreground.

Fresh homemade salsa…

Chopped vegetables (tomatoes, onions, peppers) sit inside a transparent food processor bowl on a dark marbled countertop in a kitchen setting.

I love that this lake really has a trail all the way around it. A good distance of ~4.3 miles the only real unfortunate part is if you are trying to avoid sun you almost can’t but it is ok I will take the sun to enjoy the view. I guess to nitpick more, a round mile number would be nice.

A still lake lies beneath a clear blue sky, with a distant treeline forming the horizon.

Today was a  run in search of trails to run on and I think I chose a good trail to go ramble on this morning. Felt good enough to complete this run but probably could have been better if I would have gotten better sleep last night. Though glad to get this done as I think we are going to have a real warm one today.

A wooden bridge crosses a small creek, surrounded by lush green forest and tall trees on a slightly overcast day.

A large tree has fallen across a narrow dirt path, surrounded by dense, green forest foliage.

M has been really into baking lately and her newest item is blueberry muffins from scratch. I will have to say they are pretty good!

It was actually cool out this morning which felt great. Just wish I could say the same for my body during this run .

Trees stand tall amidst dense green undergrowth, basking in early morning sunlight, within a serene forest clearing. Light mist drifts through, adding a dreamy quality to the scene.

Glad to get moving on this run early today as the day seems pretty busy with meetings. Also, helps to avoid some direct sunlight midday and I got an overcast and calm morning which was nice as well.

Took to the trails running today to change up my normal paths. Not sure if it was any cooler there but gave me something different to worry about.

Terminal.Shop Coffee

Thanks to Jamie and I guess ultimately his cousing Qunn as I saw both of the posts at the same time for me Saturday morning about Terminal Shop. As a sucker for always being up to try new coffee, I was sold. My first experience from my iPad that Saturday I couldn’t get all the way through and complete my order but still what a cool way to order though you Terminal.

Want to give it a go as well with some unknown coffee just type ‘ssh terminal.shop’ in your terminal.

Fast forward to Monday I did order some from my computer so I will look forward to receiving the package.. Or I think I will at some point.

Decided to make it a long run morning and head over Ridge Road. It was humid out but I will take the cooler temps since I did a lot more miles than I have for the last month.

A rooftop with a skylight overlooks a tranquil pond bordered by lush, green trees under a partly cloudy sky.

The girls got the whole family playing Volleyball tonight. Well I know it isn’t a regulation net but we made it work with some rule modifications.

Four people are playing badminton on a driveway with a low net in the center, surrounded by houses, trees, and parked cars.

Even got Darby to join in at the end 🤭🐶

Two people watch a black dog jump while playing in front of an open garage filled with various items.

This shortcut got me thinking with some modifications might be my best path to get some of the shorter posts I make to DayOne as well. My current shortcut errors out from time to time due to DayOne shortcut steps must not be 100% the same from iOS/Mac. So using Tot would at least kept the text. 🤔

Going to try this little Tot to Mico.blog publish shortcut again as it did work as intended but some of the links didn’t translate through as I expected upon waking up today. Here goes!
