Have you ever watched a grizzly bear from 100 meters away? Have you ever done it for 75 minutes straight?

Spectacular doesn’t come on a silver platter. You get luckier the harder you work for it. You can’t force it.

You can only put yourself in the region and hopefully cross paths with spectacular.

We hit a couple bullseyes yesterday.

“We were here”

Disney speaker jeff noel and wife at mountain lake — Bowman Lake. First time for us.

Mountain lake — The effort to get here is why few do.

Spending enough time in Nature is challenging to gauge. How much is enough?

Most suffer from nature deficit disorder.

A good benchmark is spending as long as it takes to get bored. Once bored, you can begin to notice nature for the first time, unencumbered by bucket list items.

Pausing, sitting, staring, noticing.

These are higher-level bucket list items.

Lay your head down

Pixar Luca toys at firetower — HQ is where you lay your head each night. What kind of CEO of your HQ are you? No one is in charge of your life but you. BFO, right.

If you don’t get your home life organized, you will never get your home life organized.

Spend your whole life being organized or spend your whole life being disorganized.

It is (literally) immature to pick the first choice.

Serendipity R.O.C.K.S!

Pixar Luca toys in mountains — Iconic Bearhat mountain across from Hidden Lake (at the overlook). Iconic WDW milestone pin and Pixar’s Luca lead characters.

Pixar Luca toys in mountains — Pixar’s Soul lead characters, in two forms.

Serendipity is a favorite observation. Yesterday’s hike provided a high tide of serendipity.

A couple struck up a conversation about our Pixar characters.

It ended with an invitation to have ice cream at Fenton’s, on Piedmont Avenue in Oakland, California.
