I'd have to step off and wait for the next one.

Most mornings I walked.

That's why this stuff makes me crazy.

After my dog walks this morning, I spend all day in the raised bed garden doing some planting and then in the back. I'm covered in dirt, sweaty and completely disheveled. I feel good!

So many posts...

I kind of feel bad for GD because he says he did a dick move when the other guy was obviously being a dick and not thinking about what he was doing. I think people like this float around in their own worlds and want us all to watch out for them. I think he must have had plenty of time to see GD coming {or anyone else, not just GD 'cause I know him} and have stepped out of the way. If not, he shouldn't have just stopped dead in his tracks, either.

Just because a bike is a 'vehicle' doesn't mean peds then get a free pass.

NA~ sounds like you and the Mister had a great day around the homestead.

Bob~ I hear you, hospitals are not fun. I hope your wifes' and your time there wraps up soon.

Work prevented really getting out last weekend but stuck to the goal and got out for a day drive up to Tuolumne Meadows today. Good adventure as we were not prepared for the very cold thunder storm that blew through while we were a mile away from cover. Nice lightning storm and nice adventure (once we were back in the car and Lani was freezing any more.

A few mediocre photos.

Spoiler:

Alex~ Awesome shots!! I especially love the one with the critters wandering about.

I did see on the halfdomecam webpage a beautiful shot of Half Dome, it looked like there must have been thunderstorms.

While awesome and beautiful, not so fun in shorts and a tee.

You are so very fortunate to live close enough for a day trip.

Thanks for posting!

{The first one, what is that so close up? Rock? Love the detail.}

I agree. First though, I would have used my horn (gasp!) from a bit away to notify him that I was coming. He might have stepped out of the way. And, if not, then I would have just shouted as I passed.

That would have left Mr. Phone Guy being the sole dick in the matter. And, I wouldn't have attempted any risk to myself in the process. (Well, other than possibly getting punched in the face by all these people who apparently punch people in their faces for having bike horns/bells.) Plus, I'd rather not consciously do dickish things. I feel there's enough bad energy in the world already and I would like to not add to it as much as I can. But, that's just me. YMMV.

Love your Tuolomne Meadows photos. We might have to trek up there next summer. Ken and I have been talking about camping there for some time now.

Tomorrow I'll be back at the hospital as she will go through more test on her heart.

I Only got 2 hours sleep and then 7 phone calls. Went back to the hospital, wifey had an elcetrocardiogram, and more blood tests. The tests(for all the results we hear about through the nurses) have been pretty good. She will get a stress test tomorrow, so she will still be in the hospital at least until then.

I'm so sick of hanging out at hospitals.....

OMG. The Lashpair send their thoughts and best healing vibes to your wife and of course to you !!

PM Lashstoat if you need an ear with someone who's been through that mill recently.

Thanks Bear!

Great shots Alex! That's beautifull country up there.

Well, we got home a little while ago. Turns out that wifey has nothing more than a heart murmer and diabetic neuropathy. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayer!

So now I'm going to sleep for the next 18 hours....

Alex- great shots! I like the first one, with the rocks in the foreground.

R- glad it's something that sounds manageable!

Glad to hear she's ok, and that you're both back home! Rest well! :)
