Waded through loads of beaver ponds today fishing. It was so quiet and peaceful. There is a timeless quality to nature that reflects its creator. It would have been easy to get lost in there and part of me wanted to.

Been building a bridge decked with Brazilian Ipe wood. Saving some scraps because it is high quality lumber and so dense it doesn’t float.

I think there should be dedicated word for when you slide bacon around on a hot pan to grease it to avoid sticking later in the cooking process.

Anyone remember the series Kung Fu from the 70's? They made a continuation of it in the 90's about the protagonist's grand and great grandson. The 90's show was alright, if not a little cheesy at times. The one thing that stuck with me about it was that the main character kept his grandfather's, father's, and his own journal, receiving and passing down wisdom. That was such a cool concept to me at the time and still is. I journal sporadically, but have never been able to maintain a daily journal over long stretches of time. I've had the best success with text files, but even they are sprinkled all around. I've recently tried journaling in a physical notebook and there is something very pleasant about it. Do any of you journal?
