Summer's Back

The temperature crept up near one hundred today.  It's 84 degrees in my room with the AC on almost continuously.  I did get out and walk, and though it was hot, it felt like I was finally doing what I should be doing.

As crazy as the idea of the N2N-TCP sounded in the beginning, the closer it gets to the time to step out the more I think it really is a calling that I have to accomplish. I'm not sure where it will lead on the arc of my life, but I know that I keep getting drawn closer and closer to the idea of striking out and finishing things up a little less than half a year later.

It's not the most responsible idea that's ever crossed my mind, but at the same time it's not the most irresponsible thing I've ever done either.

We'll see where this leads, but I can feel the call growing stronger as the time shortens.  Tomorrow will be another step on the path into the unknown, and I'm looking forward to what that step will reveal.

Sometimes A Picture is Enough

It's been a tiring week. I actually accomplished quite a bit at my day job, but it's come with a cost so today a picture will be enough.

The sun setting behind College Creek was a good way to wrap up an exciting and adventurous week. I'm looking forward to tomorrow and whatever might come with the rising of that same sun.

Thursday Waning

I'm pushing pretty hard now at my day job, but walking is still getting done. Today the universe delivered on another spectacular sunrise.

I hate to admit that the quality of these postings seems to be slipping, but rest assured that the work behind the scenes is still happening.

Rory has hatched a scheme to fund our pilgrimage by volunteering to be the subjects of medical experiments along the way. It's really not as crazy as it might sound, and he's got some contacts so he's going to pursue the enterprise a bit. I told him I was all in, so we'll see where it all goes.

Every day is a grand adventure, and I'm looking forward to what will be thrown our way tomorrow.
