Have a good Saturday, everyone!

Sorry about your neck, SG. I know how that can go. I have a cat who likes to sleep curled up against my neck so some mornings I wake up in a lot of pain. There's a stretch I do that helps. Stand up straight, and imagine a chain runs through your spine, your neck and out your head. Yes it's silly looking. Now imagine it's being pulled up, and stretch yourself straight up. This usually makes something in my neck reset (aka snap loudly) and gets rid of most of the pain and stiffness. Improves my posture too.

Dang, coffee's not working this morning. I have to do the usual flail around the house cleaning before HPM gets home thing today. At least I got a lot of stuff taken care of this week. I woke up at 4:30 am with a massive leg cramp up the backs of both thighs. Jeebees that hurt, and still does. I knew before I went to bed that I hadn't had nearly enough water yesterday.

I'm still alive. The moving has been slow because of my back, but I'm finished but for some odds and ends and some painting. I had one of those revelations a couple of days ago and am thinking of hanging out in the upper midwest and doing local hiking during the warm months. When it starts edging to chilly time, I may sell all my furniture and just head south in my truck. I figure to hike a little on the AT and then head west along the southern part of the country, hiking whatever trails I happend to cross. I don't know if I want an intinerary or not, but it would be nice to hike with some tt'ers as I passed through their territory. Anyway, that's today's plan.

Anyway leaving on thursday for an overnight 28 miler on the "Trail Between The Lakes" just east of here between Lake Sam Rayburn and Toledo Bend Reservoir on the La. border. Rain? who cares..............as long as I got my lil espresso maker, I'm good to go.

There's frost on all the rooftops around here this morning.

I already dropped off the car at the dealership to install the new catalytic converter. A huge shipment of Tribecas had arrived even earlier this morning, and they parked them all across the workbays, and in all the service parking spots. The head of the service dept. had 2 guys moving all the new cars around to clear the service area out. He was pretty ticked off.

I didn't check in to TT earlier since our internet connection was down for an hour or so.

Weather's about 70 until the afternoon seabreeze kicks in, then it'll drop to the low 60's. Bleah.

I'm not feeling the coffee today. Ugh, need more caffeine.

Good Hello, everyone. It was a great weekend at Hocking Hill's SP in Ohio. I'm now back in NC, staying at Cataloochee CG in GSMNP. Everything is normal. Cold and snow in these parts. I have now added a tire and a car battery to keep the car running, visited a medical clinic (Urgent Care in Waynesville), received a good shot in my bottom, where it still hurts, and some more medication to help a foot. But I have done a couple of short hikes. (They were long for me!) And I'll be doing some more.

Best wishes to you all.

Sunshine here as well, with a predicted high in the 50's. Supposed to get a big rain tonight and thru tomorrow. It should help clean up the remaining snow. Fields are starting to melt off; deer are showing up in herds too numerous to count. Looks like I'll start cleaning the almost sold house today.

Good morning from Waynesville, NC. Had to come into town to see the doctors again. Their antibiotic seems to be helping my poor foot.

Chappy - Thanks for the cup. It is nice, when it has coffee. And it goes good with my jacket. What is this nonsense about sending it back to Nimblefoot? I didn't get any postage for the task. He'll have to wait a long time.

Have a great day, everyone.

Scabies turned out to be the primary cause of my sore foot. No fungi were present. Now I'm just working toward a recovery. After 10 days I may need to return home for a couple of weeks. Such is life.
