Tomorrow we hop in the car and drive to Atlanta for the Peachtree 10k.\u00a0 My wife is running in it.\u00a0 She tells me it is the most populous 10k in the world, something like 60,000 runners.\u00a0 That’s a lot of people.\u00a0 I’m planning to mostly just stay out of the way.\u00a0 A 10k is 6.2 miles, that should take her about an hour and I’m a bit doubtful whether I will be there at the finish.\u00a0 So she and I will have to work out a meeting plan for after the race.<\/p>\n
Today I went with #1 son and his new dog over to a lake in the Tombigbee National Forest.\u00a0 It was a hot day, but nice in the shade.\u00a0 The pup was having a fun time playing in the water and running around.\u00a0 We both enjoyed casting into the lake from the bank but neither of us had any action from the fish.<\/p>\n
This morning I was supposed to climb the tower to work on the ham radio club’s antenna setup.\u00a0 We tried to move that forward last Tuesday evening.\u00a0 We met about 6 pm and I got up the tower OK.\u00a0 But as soon as I got there I started feeling really bad, kind of nauseous and crampy and just terrible.\u00a0 The temp was in the 80’s and I was sweating buckets and it just was not going to happen. So I came back down without doing any of the work.<\/p>\n
Like I said, I was supposed to do it this morning and I was aiming to do it this morning.\u00a0 I packed up my stuff and got over there… when my partner in the project noticed that I had forgotten to bring my climbing gear!\u00a0 So we decided to call it off and try another day.<\/p>\n
I will be happy to get that project done.\u00a0 I think I’ve been up that tower four or five times now and I expect there are at least two more trips to be done.\u00a0 I am not a very speedy tower climber;\u00a0 I use my rock climbing gear that I bought in Colorado.\u00a0 It is safe, but not as convenient as it could be.\u00a0 So it takes me longer to get up there and get tied in and comfortable… and also slower on the trip down.<\/p>\n
