Sometimes it is good to fall off the face of the earth, the earth as it has become anyway. Rip Van Winkle seems to have discovered this 200 years ago.

Day 4 Gossmer Wings with Anchor in Tow
Having a Guardian Angel at your side helps with these rides, but the same Angel mounted on a Bovine Friend …well that is just …Perfect.
Day 3 “Do Overs”
5/30/18
I send Angel on ahead to sniff the air. It’s very important to make sure no hogs are in the slaughter line. 3 years ago I paid the price for this. Panicked porcine vibes struck me big time. How clearly I can remember the smell of pig wafting from the woods just before it happened.
Today the “coast is clear”…I sigh with relief and ride on.

With great concentration I held the metal pole and looked at the bar ahead. What could be so hard about this? I ran down the track as fast as I could, placed the pole in the block and launched myself into the air.
From my 10th grade gym teacher “ 3 1/2 feet and you hit the bar! D-! NEXT!”
Day 0 : The Melting Pot

The granite block was hewed to near perfection. Soon it would belong to a Cathedral in a Great City. With filthy hands beyond hope of ever being clean again he sat down to a feast of lobster.
It was garbage no one else would eat…

He was 41 years old…at least he had lived a few more years than many who died during those traumatic years.

Training is done and it’s time to “chew the cud”…

With age comes Wisdom and the responsibility it carries with it like an old carpet bag…

It took a while but she finally digested those 6 pomegranate seeds…
