What were you thinking?

24 hours ago, no Apple website backups or downtime. The order went through on the first try.

What were you thinking?

Was thinking, warm up car at 5:45AM, drive to front desk at 5:50AM, be the first one inside when the desk opens at 6:00AM, and order the new iPhone 11 Pro Max.

What was i thinking?

That’s what i was thinking.

And, “this is perfect”.

Trailheads and Oldheads

8:25 AM yesterday.

Trailheads and Oldheads.

Oldheads is a phrase we used as teenagers in the ‘70’s to describe older people.

The negative connotation is that they are closed-minded.

Trailheads can be closed-minded if you take the well worn paths.

Yesterday’s trailhead looked like a “keep out” or “enter at your own risk” sign.

Perfect.

Sun or Tunnel?

Going to the Sun Mountain almost touched the clouds yesterday morning. Photo credit: Collin Williams.
Hiking the Ptarmigan Tunnel trail yesterday morning.

The last minute offer to summit Going-to-the-Sun Road was incredible.

Felt it was out of my league, balked, and let too much time pass.

Before the offer, Ptarmigan Tunnel was the hike for today and its trail head just two minutes from my room door.

Wait!

The Sun Mountain hike offer is rare, so i changed my mind and bolted from Swiftcurrent to rush to Siyeh Bend for the trail head.

Nine Eleven

Yesterday, September 10, 2019. Was able to watch the entire Apple Special Event live streamed while sitting in the Swiftcurrent Valley.

Nine Eleven.

Two-thousand one.

Pausing for a moment of silence.

Will hike today knowing that this was the day the world stopped turning.

You won’t believe what you can do

Not sure i can devote two hours today to this luxury distraction. *
Lake McDonald Lodge marina, looking at the Garden Wall where Granite Park Chalet sits. 
Zooming in to the Garden Wall. 

Do we focus on the lost day at Granite Park Chalet or the glorious day at Granite?

Simple.

Mourn because the rosebush has thorns or rejoice because the thornbush has roses?

A positive mental attitude really is this simple.

Over-focus on your habits and rituals and enjoy the fruits of your efforts.

The time will pass anyway, pick better choices during the time you have.

Remember, this is you training your thoughts so you can do this rethinking while simultaneously doing other physical tasks.
