Saturday In The Park

Up at 5:30 this morning for our Kennesaw Mountain hike. Picked up my friend Lee and met Dan, Steve, and Jim at the park. 3.46 miles - a little longer because we had to park at the overflow lot. A good workout. Some morning haze over Atlanta, but more clear than the past two weeks.

C had gone on a walk with Anna and Miller, from their house to the Marietta farmers market. Caleb and his dad had installed a new porch swing. I went to the gym for a sauna and treadmill cooldown. My hips seem to be feeling better after all the activity.

After all these years I am making a change in my life. I’ve eaten saltine crackers for at least 45 years, but I’ve decided to switch to Ritz crackers. Had them for lunch today with chicken salad. I make a little sandwich with a piece of cheese, the chicken salad, and a bread & butter pickle. Good stuff.

Yesterday afternoon C made sweet rolls, and pizza dough for tonight’s homemade pizza. Enough dough to make two pies. C is hinting that she wants to eat at Taqueria soon.

Fever game tonight. Weather delay at the Memorial Tournament. Hail. Worth it just to watch Jack Nicklaus tell his stories. Didn't realize I was missing the Braves 4 pm start.

Had a hard time sleeping last night. I’m drinking a lot less caffeine these days (soft drinks), so perhaps it was the Diet Coke from Whataburger that I sipped on all afternoon. Not sure when I’ll drink the three 2 liters of mtn dew that I’d bought.

Took a nap this afternoon.
