📸 Photoblogging - Day 30: Fish
The best part about fishing at my in-laws is that they have a lot of fish in the pond. Helps keep the kids attention too 😁.

One of my favorite photos of the Iowa State Fair. In fact we have a canvas of it on our wall.
Grocery Shopping Run
I like how well the Apple AirPods just work with my iPhone. Only over the last year have I switched almost all of my personal devices back to Apple devices and today I was reminded why it just makes sense and it just works.
With the upcoming weekend, I had a block of time this morning that I could get a longer than normal done during the workday. Since we are camping this weekend I wasn’t sure what the long weekend would bring.
I only got about 1.5 miles into my run this morning when I got the text (that was conveniently spoken to me) from our Grocery shopper that they are going to start shopping for us. I am not sure why my wife put my number for them to contact but it probably works as I am in front of a computer most days and she is a teacher in front of kids. However, I was able to respond easily to the shopper on her questions about substitutions for the entire run. I never had to stop once to grab my phone out and respond and I was listening to a Podcast in between the times that she would ask me another question. It was honestly just so simple to listen to what she asked me and then say “reply” and respond with my answer. I exchanged 10 messages with her until she finally sent me the note saying she was done and I would get an email shortly. This was conveniently 1 mile before I was done and I was ok with the fact that all of this happened as I was doing something else. I didn’t have much else going on during that run but I would have been frustrated if I would have had to stop every mile and try to respond to her on my phone instead of just plugging away at the miles while texting her back.
Times when technology works the way it is intended (or maybe not intended) for me just blows my mind. Some people probably would not enjoy such a disruption as I had today but I didn’t mind it at all as I might have otherwise been stuck with groceries I didn’t want or ones I would have happily taken a replacement for but never responded to say so.
Just a beautiful day to be outside running. Blue skies and 61°F this morning. 🏃🏻♂️

Camping food schedule for the weekend 🚐
Needed this run today it has been a long week. Not to mention I felt much better running than I though I would have. 🏃🏻♂️
📸 Photoblogging - Day 25: Mountain
Beautiful mountains… I mean farmland as I am driving through Iowa today 🙃
📸 Photoblogging - Day 24: Intricate
Not sure why I always enjoy stained glass.
Had to get this one done in the early morning hours today. It has been awhile since I have woken up and went right out for a run. I think my body was confused and wanted coffee first 🏃🏻♂️☕️

I have spent too much time today and yesterday sitting in these chairs.
📸 Photoblogging - Day 21: Symmetry
In between the various dance number I watched I stared at this structure as well.
Thank you Murphy Micro Roast for being outside the dance competition this morning. I am sure I will need another one too as 5am was a little too early for me today. 🥱☕️
📸 Photoblogging - Day 20: Beverage
What a whirlwind last couple of days it has been. Time to sip on this one for a while…
Saw this shovel and spraying can in the road on my run today. I decided to do my good deed by moving it into the grass I am sure either of those could have had some consequences if someone ran over them.
📸 Photoblogging - Day 19: Indulgence
Might be more of a sickness… I actually had no idea I had so many 🫣👟
