Well, last week I got one thing done fitness wise: I completed my bicycle miles for the month. I also started my upper body strength program (weights) at the Wellness Center at work. That program is a six-week improvement plan. Will see how that goes. Another short status update. Still trying to get momentum on … Continue reading Fitness Update: One Target on track

Creational and relational type Renaissance man (writer, singer, thinker) holding to C.S Lewis's credo that if you follow truth originality takes care of itself, (anyway, originality is so yesterday, anyway.) That I have my wonderful wife Jasini is proof enough for me that life isn't fair. If it was fair I wouldn't have her, and instead she is my most faithful example that I am blessed beyond measure. My two adult children are the same unmerited blessing to me. We should all be thankful life is not fair but blessed.

Worlds of Fun: Park Denizens converse
Today's post is about something that happened a week ago at Worlds of Fun. I went in the evening to grab supper and some entertainment, while avoiding the excessive, for me, atmosphere of the Halloween Haunt's Overlord's Awakening.

One sidewalk done (almost); now how about another …
Getting in and out of where I live has been a little more interesting the past couple of months. They did a lot of utility work on Winn Road and now are just about finished putting in the sidewalk that made all the utility (mostly for storm-sewer drains) work necessary. All that seems to be … Continue reading One sidewalk done (almost); now how about another …

Bike Lane as the trash lane
Today's post is possibly a sort of hodgepodge of images and reflections, rather than a really structured logic.

I had been riding across the Chouteau bridge, using one of the two bike/pedestrian … Continue reading Bike Lane as the trash lane
