Mountains to Climb

Hiking

We have hung all the photos on the walls in the new house. There was some rationale for which canvas went where, but not that much thought went into it.

At the top of the staircase now hangs a panorama from Tom, Dick and Harry in Oregon. I took it on a nice day in 2019. Six kilometers of hiking through forest, a long neck of PNW IPA in my stomach. No pain anywhere (I'm sure...)

More recently I've been concentrating on activating my glutes more when I take steps to try and help the ankle pain. The most common place to do this has been on the staircase at home.

Now when I walk up the stairs to the view of treetops and sky and distant peaks it feels like I've walked up a mountain.

Next Entry: Summer Again Again Again

Based on the current forecasts, it will have rained less than 20mm between the January day I bought tickets to Norway and the day my plane takes off this month. This means that after a regular summer, and an autumn summer, I'll be experiencing a European summer.

Promoted Entry: Five Lessons from Speculate 18

Too much for me summarise in a review. Instead, I thought I'd share a single takeaway and challenge from each of the sessions.

Promoted Entry: I Can't See My House From Here

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.

Previous Entry: Nash Finally Loses

I feel like, in Nash's head, she is on an eleven year winning streak. Until tonight.
