My back is officially "out" -- but only muscular right now. I slipped on a creek rock and jolted it into fully problematic. Bummer. Not as bad as December though. I haven't needed to take any muscle relaxers yet.
But, the hike was great -- 6 miles, a few hills and an easy pace. It's a good location and a fun one to take the family and dogs. Not a lot of pictures since I hiked with 2 poles, but here are a few. Interesting fact -- Jimmy Carter preserved the land around the Chattahoochee River for the National Parks. He called it a "string of pearls" when you look at the map of all the parks along the river.

I tried my hand at dot painting. It's harder than it looks to get a circle. It's a fun change of pace with painting though. Nice ahead of Easter since it reminds me of Easter eggs.

| I messed around with it too much. Especially the middle dot. This technique has some texture but the middle is messy. |
The townhome seller who wouldn't negotiate anything under asking, came back with a counter. Guess he didn't get the offers he was expected over the weekend. We declined. Sticking with my gut.
Not sure what today holds. My back might not be up for gardening or painting the Little Free Library. I'll return the library books that I finished and that might be the extent of moving around. Is my back problem the LFL curse?!?! Oh no!! Lol :)

| Not bad |

| Graphic and violent. I didn't like it, but I finished it to see how it ended. |
That's all for today. It's uncomfortable to sit upright to type. Happy Monday. Later gators.
