It felt good to take a walk outside today. And it reminded me to put my knee brace on if headed out. I can do the treadmill without it but uneven ground is a killer right now.

I was doing some purging of old photo directories and almost trashed this shot. But something made me stop for a second. It made me think about being that old and standing side by side with my better half admiring a view we have many times before together. I so want to grow old together with her.

I so want to have that view and many more. Who knows, maybe you will find us out on a jet-ski or in the lounge chair at the pool bar. But I’d be pleased with holding her hand for hours just glad to have had this time together.

So, this photo and couple have given me something to look forward to. I’m guessing they got about 20 years on me, so my goal is to be at this spot in 2045 and blog about feeling like the luckiest people alive.

Random Thoughts of the Evening

• It had been so long since I had the inclination to put the car window down, I had to fiddle for the buttons today. But boy did that fresh air feel good.
• I spent some of the day discovering some new music and that is always a good thing.
• It’s hard to lose track of what day it is when you have a lot of things you do daily.
• If I keep this pace up and more, it’s going to be a great year.
