Evanston: myself again
Evanston: myself again
I have been back here for almost four weeks and only in the past few days have I felt myself again. This afternoon I even did my full work-out for the first time since October, when I only did it once. Only once in September too. That month my excuse was that I was sailing. In November it was my back. Not sure why I didn’t work-out once THE HAWKE OF TUONELA was on her mooring in October. Even if I stick to my three times a week routine for the rest of this month, I won’t reach fifty for the year. Sailing around the world messes up routines.
I came across a promising ten minute exercise set in the Chicago Tribune online. Although it apparently originates at Livestrong.com, I can’t find it on that site. The Tribune link is: http://www.chicagotribune.com/health/chi-10-min-workout-pg,0,2155867.photogallery.

Two days ago I walked through the cemetery to the lake.
As usual I had the place to myself, and saw several rectangles of fresh black earth surrounded by grass: new graves.
A line of dilatory geese was floating single file on the lake a hundred yards offshore.
