I’m going to have a slow day and veg out in front of the TV again. I made the mistake of trying one of the Nutrisystem cookies, and it didn’t agree with me. I think I understand how one loses so much weight on that diet...
So I will drink lots of tea and just recline. I’ve done all I can on the hat until I get the brim wire, and I’ve almost completed a paisley picture. Paisley is a difficult pattern to color.
Busdaddy is being taken up to Pike’s Peak today. He is going to love the view, but I bet he will be physically uncomfortable because of the thin air. That’s OK. He’s all for the adventure!
He seems to be really having fun, this time. The last time he went, his mother was with him, but she has COPD, so they were all trying to make things easier for her. Not much sight-seeing except for Garden of the Gods.
Reminds me of the trip I took there as a boy; Pike’s Peak, the Garden of the Gods.
Pike’s Peak didn’t bother me, as a boy, but it bothered my mom a lot. It was the middle of August, and they had snow banked around the building.
I also learned, rather graphically, that Icarus had it entirely wrong. Closer to the sun, when it’s only altitude, doesn’t make it warmer.
I’m glad he’s enjoying the trip.
