Greg Ostergeburtstag

I don't like growing older, but I'm getting used to it. It's not like there are any better alternatives available. And it was a good excuse for taking Friday off work, hiking the long way around Morialta, then having lunch at Little Bang.

The whole long weekend has been pleasant, with a day trip through the grey cloud curtain to Victor Harbor yesterday, multiple coffees, and lunch at Alex's today. Despite being 39 I've kicked a football, worn shorts, played minigolf, finished a computer game, deadlifted, eaten way too much cake in a single sitting, and many other activities more suited to those with more testosterone than whatever my body's declining natural levels are these days. I've also gardened, sorted my work emails, worked on mobility, followed the stock market, and thought about my tax return. So the opening of this entry remains true.

I'm not sure exactly how I should plan out the last year of my thirties, nor how much deviance from expectations life is likely to throw at me. I guess I should really think about what entry I'm going to post when I'm forty.

Next Entry: Bradismlocks

Bradismlocks was taking a walk through a winter and came upon a house in a wet, cold part of the space-time continuum. This was very tiring.

After nine days of driving, relaxing, hiking and driving some more today I reached what most certainly was the furthest point of the road trip. From Lower Beechmont I drove up the very long, extremely windy Lamington National Park Road to Green Mountains - an experience both twisty and magnificent.

I did not put a lot of effort into planning my visit to Strasbourg. There was an Alltrails map that promised a thorough tour of this World Heritage district and I took it at its word.

Previous Entry: Consequences

On the weekend I walked a loop around West Lakes under grey, drizzly skies. Sunday morning I walked along the Torrens and into North Adelaide for a bakery visit.
