Very pretty, Claire. Here's a picture from our Dog Walk this morning. I have an event at 4:30 this afternoon. If I'm home in time I will catch yoga at 6:30.

Claire: Such a beautiful picture! Nice capture of the setting sun.
Ruth: I like how Bruno is looking back to make sure you're following him.
Something strange happened on this thread. I contacted the Mods and it's been taken care of. Yesterday there was a post from a new person here. Username was mamarika. The post was a copy of mine that I made a couple of days earlier. Mamarika had just joined yesterday and had a total of 6 posts. I looked at the others and on at least one other thread the same thing of copying someone else's post had happened. That's when I reported the post on this thread and sent the Mods a pm. They got rid of mamarika thank goodness. It creeped me out to see that it had happened, especially since it was my post that was copied.
Walked and kinda ran this evening. It was really hot and I was cautious.

Oh wow wonderland, that is creepy for you.
I had noticed that entry and it had a rhyme to it that caught my interest (I now think it is the teacher in me seeing someone's copied words!) ... but I didn't go digging into it. NOW, I'll really be on the lookout for all those lasagna eaters out there!!
I'm still in PT for my knee, but have been doing 2PT sessions/week and have added restorative and gentle yoga to the mix. That is the plan for August.
Today is a liquid diet prep day for my colonoscopy tomorrow
...so just a bit of waking and a lot of reading. It seems like you should at least get the benefit of a 5lb weight loss from this event, but afraid not. Happy Wednesday, TT

Glad you are rehabing, TT. Good luck with the prep. Even if I do lose 5 pounds during it, I am so starving when I come to that I gain it back immediately!
A very windy, almost cool, morning for a walk m

Core last night, Pound this morning.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend. My schedule the last few days hasn't matched with the exercise classes I like to take. Yesterday I walked & did a yoga DVD. Today I will walk & do some sort of toning DVD.

Final training rides in preparation for my trip. Tomorrow will be a paddle as promises to be hot. I met my large friend on the trail yesterday. Leave for Scotland on Tuesday! - Claire


One of the Chain Lakes on the Trail of the Coeur d'Alenes.


Out in the open water from Thursday's kayaking.

Paddled under the I-90 bridge! Note the choppy water from the headwind. Lots of exercise for the return.

Beautiful pictures! Looking forward to more from the Scottish countryside!

Love your pictures, Claire. Looks so refreshing. And the moose - Yikes! I know you're ready to be in Scotland!
I met a friend yesterday to walk. We only walked a mile and then sat in a gazebo and talk. Also this week I have been helping to empty my dh's aunt's mobile home. The ac doesn't work well, in fact only warm air blows out. So within minutes I'm a sweaty mess. Went 3 times this week - it's exhausting mentally bc I'm packing up someone's life and it physically exhausting bc it's so freaking hot!
Hope to get more exercise next week.

Exercise today has been going through papers, drawers, some cabinets and clearing out the old. Emptying dh's aunt's house has motivated me to address areas in my house. I'm pretty good at organizing and getting rid of stuff and like to do it when in the mood. There's still things to go through and there will always be things to go through. Auntie had a clean, neat house but she had lots of things that needed to be discarded years ago. That's the stuff I'm trying to not let accumulate. It's always a work in progress!
Wondering if any of you have friends or family getting Covid. Yesterday I heard about 7 people I know who have it. Today I heard about 2 more. I'm going back to masking up again.

I know SO many people who have Covid that it is very disturbing.....and I was at an indoor wedding reception just the other day. Yikes! My only hope is that being doubled boosted will keep me from getting very sick if I do come down with it.
Instead of presents, a good friend & I try to give each other an 'experience' for her birthday. For mine she took me to a wine tasting event. Today, for hers, we went on a pasture tour of a buffalo herd (the National Buffalo Museum is in our town). Very interesting & informative.

Zumba this morning. I am hosting my Book Club tonight so have been getting organized for that.
Safe travels, Claire!

Off tomorrow! Packed other than for jewelry which I shall do shortly. No swim tonight as just got my hair the way I want it, at least for the first part of the trip.
That buffalo calf is adorable. But I see lots of attentive mothers so no urge to get close. Really hoping that all my train connections work out, especially on the way to Scotland.
AC in my car died again so it's to the shop when I return.
I am so excited. More when I return from my adventures. - Claire

Claire: I know you will have an awesome time! Can't wait to hear about it. Safe travels!
Ruth: Such a fun unique gift! Those buffalo babies are precious. Big Daddy Buffalo looks like a stud. Huge! I know ya'll had a blast.
No exercise again today. It's just too draining. The dew point has been in the 70s for days and days. Just sucks up your energy. Also, went back to Auntie's mobile home to wait on the ac repairman who never showed up. So hot! I mainly sat and looked through pictures while we waited.

I'm back home after a wonderful 4 week trip. We had a wonderful time. I need to post pictures on FB. Will try to post a few here, but it proves to be quite the challenge for me to post more than one at a time/post. Thankfully, travel went relatively smoothly (no cancelled flights) and our luggage arrived with each flight. I'm going to go through my photos and make a photo book for 20, 21 and 22 (at end of this year) so my photos are somewhere other than my phone.
Lots to do to catch up at home. And get ready for the start of the 22-23 sy which starts for me on the 15th. The kiddos start on the 22nd. Next week is full of PDs. I'll be at the same school I finished the school year at covering FMLA (at least I think I will as I haven't checked work email since I left) through October.
Ruth - great b'day gifts. The buffalo photos are great.
Wonderful - I did a lot of decluttering and throwing out in June. Still more to do - hope to do a little the next couple days in between appointments and catching up at home.
We had lots of HOT weather on. our trip and it is heating up here to high 90s.
Claire have a wonderful trip.
Too hard to go back and read several weeks posts - I did skim posts every now and then, but not enough to remember to address everyone.
Have a great Tuesday.

Welcome back, Karen! Glad your trip went well and you have no terrible travel stories to tell (which is a minor miracle this year)! Yikes, you don't have much time to get back into the school mode!
I went to Barre Sculpt & Yoga tonight.

Such a pretty picture, Ruth!
Met a friend for walk and talk this morning. Today was cooler and the dew point was lower. Really makes a difference!
I'm kitten sitting a little blind kitten for a friend of mine who will be gone until September 1. She's so little and so precious. I let her walk around the house and it's amazing how well she does. When my 2 adult cats come inside I put kitty back in her huge cage. My cats are sweet but you never know how they will interact. Plus, if the interaction is good and they bond it could be hard on kitty when she goes back home.

So neat about the kitten, Wonderland! We babysat animals most of the week; but they were dogs. The wife of a couple friend was in the hospital from early Monday morning until Wednesday so we ran over; let the dogs out, played with them, took them on car rides, fed them, etc. during the day (the husband came home at night to sleep). Wednesday night & most of Thursday we babysit DS & fiance's 3 dogs because they were out of town. Today I went to yoga & did another Dog Hike.

Hope your friend is doing okay. Sounds like you have had your hands full with dogs!
I push mowed for an hour today. It was hot but dew point was in the low 50s. Amazing! Dh finished the rest of the yard.

It's all about the dew point!
My friend had a artery going into her heart that was 95% blocked. Amazingly they put a stent in through her wrist on Monday & she was home on Wednesday. She has to go to rehab but has very few restrictions otherwise.

Oh my goodness! I bet your friend is feeling better every day.
It would have been a good day for a walk instead I took a nap. lol Had a hard time falling asleep last night. This afternoon I was productive. Made tomato soup and 3 loaves of zucchini chocolate chip bread. I have tried freezing the soup before but it doesn't freeze well. So I enjoy it while it's fresh.
0 -
Wonder the zucchini chocolate chip bread sounds yummy. I made blueberry muffins on Friday.
Not sure what I accomplished today. My summer vacation has come to an end and I guess I'm sad about it. Once I'm back to work tomorrow, I'll be okay.
Weather is cooling off to the 80s more normal for this time of year. I'm done with the 90s.
Will try to post pictures from trip with my phone. For some reason, it never works on my computer.

Good-bye summer break, hello 22-23 sy. Won't be getting as many steps as I did over the summer. Hoping for at least 12K but would love to reach 15K.
Have a great Monday

Good luck with the school year, Karen!
Went to Dance2fit this morning (the instructor is a school teacher so this is her last morning exercise class for the summer as school starts here next week), Pound this evening, and ran around doing errands the entire day in-between the two and did some baking tonight, so it was a busy day.
