🔆 I'm using a fancy bullet list with sunshine.
🔆 I got a few miles on a mountain walk and had a too-close-for-comfort run in with 2 large bears. They exited the woods on the road right in front of me on a curve (just like last time). Mountain on one side, gully on the other, no houses -- no where to go except the road. They are ridiculously quiet and hard to see through the trees. I turned around, backed up and finished the walk in the neighborhood instead. My neighbor said this is the biggest bear season they've seen and some are a bit aggressive. Eeek. They are beautiful ... from a distance. I'm going to carry the noise horn on walks.
🔆 Turns out it was too long of a walk -- maybe too many hills. My back was really bad last night. I still need to limit activity again. Dang. This is the only walk picture I took. The bears had me a little spooked so I was watching for more of them, not little hidden finds.

| I pass this tree often. It's really striking IRL. Funny, dark swirl. |
🔆 I had a good, long lunch with my neighbor and her dog. Asheville is very dog friendly.
🔆 My eldest is having neck issues with numbness, jolting down his body, tingling. He had an MRI scheduled, but it got significantly worse so he went the the ED yesterday. It was a worry, but it's a neck injury -- nothing more serious. Rest, medication should resolve it. It was a worry for the day, but a relief that he's okay.
🔆 I fit in an afternoon visit to the teahouse for chai and an iced herbal tea. Started the circus magic book and it's good so far.
🔆 Monthly came in with a bang this morning. No surprise there. It's not bad timing actually. Guess it's still going ...
🔆 My theme for Asheville this week. I had a good trip, but not the trip I expected. It's a lesson I need to hear often.
🔆 Quick cleanup and pack up. A visit to the farmer's market and GA bound this afternoon. Fingers crossed for holiday weekend traffic -- could be an issue. Have a good one. Later gators.
