Somehow or other I broke my medicine spoon stp. So I bought and made another. The end.

so sore.

Mt. Elbert 14,433

Summited my third 14er today. It was rough. I'd tried Elbert years ago and failed because the trail is long and I was out of shape so we ran out of time. Well, turns out that even though I'm in better shape, it still sucks. But we made it! And it was the first time I hadn't worn my Chacos. I tried my vivos and it was awesome. They're so light and durable. Coming down was a bit rough on my big toes, but I think any shoe or boot would have done the same. God I'm tired.

My leg muscles are huge. I was noticing them today. Pictures don't quite show it though. Besides, then you'd have a picture of my upper thigh.

I finally got out and did some practicing. It was hard to find good places because I live in such a residential area. And the park was absolutely packed. I felt self-conscious trying to do conditioning around so many strange people. I hope I can get over that.

Because my state is on fire, I got a wonderful view of the city at sunset. I wasn't carrying my phone though, so no photos of that either.

I write a lot of places. Check the sidebar for the links.
