I am getting a yen for the open road, and mountains.
Highway stretching out to white peaked mountains. Sparse gatherings of evergreens, but predominately across high plains to higher mountains.

Andrew, that is gorgeous. Also, thank you for recommending this book, back in Lent. I finally got to reading it here, after surgery. It was thoughtful, creative, and sound. It will be a good resource, too.

Below the picture, are the words, A guide to Praying the Scripture, and the author, Martin Smith.

So, this is lighter than my cast was. I don’t have to sleep with it. But, NGL, I was thinking I’d be happily clunking around in it, right away. Oh no. I may only put about 50 lbs of weight on it this week. 75, next week, 100, next

Welp. Yes. Cast is off! He said things are healing up well. Walking boot, but only 50 1bs weight on it this week 75, next week, 100, the next week. I can sleep without it. Still have to use knee scooter for longer distances. So, -progress. I had sort of hoped I’d be clumping around, now. But, ok

We stopped at a produce farm yesterday. This got me even more, in the mood for fall. We bought a black diamond watermelon, peaches, nectarines, and plums.

I had a friend visiting. We looked out the window, and were delighted by this Baltimore Oriole. I’ve heard them, but this was the first time, I’d seen one come into the feeders.

These come out, late summer. This is from last year. I’m unsure, but they might be hackberries. I’m still waiting for more signs of fall. The vivid greens of the woods, have faded to a softer green, with slight hues of yellowing. The trees look hot and tired, like the rest of us.

I found a bag, hang on my scooter, for getting things from one room to another. I quickly found that this was no mere bag, but a little blue faced friend.
A blue cloth bag, with silver round eyelets connecting the straps to the bag. The eyelets create two eyes. The bag, hanging from handlebars of scooter, drapes around rod below handle bars.  A knob on steering shaft peeks out between to fabrics , looking like a nose. Ear tufts, on top of handle bars, from tied knots in the handle straps of bag. Thus, a little blue face.

In other news, I got my surgical stitches out, yesterday. X-rays looked good. They put a new cast on. It’s as big as the other one, just a bit more snug. Had hoped for a lighter cast, but here we are.

Wordle was a 5 today. Huz drove me to my hairdresser, for a shampoo. I feel so much more human. Physical and occupational therapy came in. All in all, productive for lately, and I’m ready for bed. Evening picture from a couple years ago.

Current view for a good part of the day, til I am stronger. It’s been a full week, since I had the planned -for ankle reconstruction. Yes. And you may see some rubber finger sling dinos on the window sill. It startles the squirrels to leaving the birdfeeders alone, sometimes.

Wordle 6 - 2 days in a row. I decided, since I am recovering from surgery, and even the bathroom feels miles away, I’m going to post other pix I have taken in other time frames.

I am just helping with the music; so not as labor intensive as some other years that I’ve helped. And first time at this church. Sooooo many volunteers. I really see the kids enjoying themselves, as well as a wide diversity of ages, helping. Parachute play, yesterday.
