#Today 11

Good day!

I swore I’d finish editing Book3 this month & am on track to do so, with days to spare.

It’s typical spring, where the weather each day bears no resemblance to the one before.

I’m trying to walk earlier each morning in anticipation of summer. Our nights are still below freezing.

Be everwell.

Amidst a stand of pines and larches where brown needles form a thick bed, snow has dusted a portion of the brown white.

Miniature canyon. Mad River ravine near Peterson Memorial Park, Wolcott, Connecticut. August 2, 2020, 7:38 PM.

In a forest of hemlock, laurel and small leafy trees, a small stream forms a quiet pool in a narrow opening between vertical rock walls 10 to 20 feet (3 to 6 meters) high. The rocks on our left are the highest, open and covered with thick green moss. To our right they are lower and covered with shrubs and ferns and trees. It is drizzling and has been raining. Everything is wet.

Good day!

It’s supposed to soar to 67F (19C) today, but I’ll walk when it’s still barely over freezing. It’ll return closer to normal tomorrow.

At least, it’s supposed to.

Later, I’ll publish another blog post in my self-editing series & (what a coincidence) edit another chapter.

Be everwell.

Good day!

The spring weather yo-yo continues. It’s rising at present.

I’ll edit my blog post today & a chapter. My skill improves, yet it’s difficult to describe how.

Progress continues to fuel progress.

My next hike will probably take me out of the valley, but not where it’s muddy.

Be everwell.

Across a meadow of brown grass, a forest of bare trees gives way to mountains, the one at center still covered in snow, all of them thick with evergreens. The sky is gray.

After the paint out, I had to squeeze in a short hike. The trail head was just 5 minutes away.
I'm going to the "N."

A horizontal photo of hills under blue sky. In foreground, lots of silvery green sagebrush, trees that are greening up, and a dirt path that looks almost orange. There's a letter N in white on the far mountain.

Good day!

Hiked 7-miles (11.3K) yesterday, then edited another chapter. It’s called pushing yourself to the limit.

I do that a lot. Lots to do, little time for doing it.

I’ll walk this morning, draft a blog post, & edit a chapter. 19 to go.

I’ll also think about my next hike…

Be everwell.

A stream cuts through a forest where the trees remain bare. It’s flowing towards the viewer. A fallen tree that’s shaped like a giant tuning fork lies across the creek. Some of the grass is greening. The water is shallow, making it easy to see the rocks beneath. There’s a hint of mountains through the trees, the sky gray.

The image shows a close-up of a branch with small, budding leaves and pinkish flowers. The background is a forested area with a path winding through it, giving the scene a natural, serene feel. The focus is on the branch, while the background is blurred, emphasizing the new growth.

Good day!

My editing continues. Only 20 chapters to go! That’s out of 93.

It’s the little milestones that motivate me daily.

I’m off for a pleasant hike north of the city this morning. That’ll be more fuel to aid me in the home stretch. I’m expecting cool & cloudy.

Be everwell.

A view looking across a portion of cliff that protrudes, the rock is a burnt sienna color. At its base is a small evergreen, much larger ones behind. It’s snowing.

4 The Wainstones, North Yorkshire UK
https://www.trailspotting.com/2025/04/the-wainstones-north-york-moors-uk.html
Three great walks to The Wainstones; a rocky sandstone outcropping that juts out of the wild grasslands & heather of the North York Moors.

A person rock climbing on a large, rugged cliff face. The climber wears a red shirt and is secured with ropes and climbing gear. The cliff consists of weathered rocks adorned with patches of moss and lichen. Below the climber, a grassy area with scattered rocks and green vegetation can be seen. The background showcases a vast landscape of rolling hills and fields beneath a cloudy sky.

Good day!

Wow, yesterday…huge meal cooked (leftovers!), salsa made, & a blah chapter magically transformed.

I’m on a roll, & I’m rolling with it.

A walk is upcoming, then another chapter. An editing milestone nears, as does another hike.

Deep breath. I’m loving it.

Be everwell.

Fresh snow coats the grass and brush in the foreground. Cutting across the scene is the Clark Fork River. Across the way, a high bank in shades of brown climbs to evergreen forest. In the distance, snow covers a mountain that disappears into the clouds.
