Highlights: Pressing myself out of the house, into the car and out to Boulder Creek to pick up an elliptical. What a phenomenal drive. What a way to start the day, being reminded that life needs to be lived with a balance between experience and creation. Returning to have Lucky sheepishly exit the room upon my arrival only to find that the bag of cashews left by Tommy on the table behind the sofa was no longer there. The empty bag was then found in the back yard, intact, yet turned completely inside out. Taking Scottie and Jen for a walk through Vasona after Jen returned from her trip. Lucky is too distracting and Scottie's aging and needs some focused time. He was of course pulling to return to the car out of fear for 2/3 of the time, yet distracted enough to reclaim some youthful vigor and chase a swan or run about on the paths and grass. We share that effect at this particular park's history in my vast past experiences. A couple of hours on the patio with Jen, the dogs, and a few aggressively present hummingbirds. An impromptu invitation for the three of us to the Marionis' for dinner with the three of them. Great Keto meal, conversation, laughter, and brainstorming of how to thwart the Stratford parents' driving dilemma.
