Friendly reminder: These blogs are me talking to me. Either in real-time, or from memory-lane.
What is normal?
Thinking that having priorities is enough.
You are insidiously delusional when you innocently avoid prioritizing your priorities.
This was a fun trip down memory lane. And a bit of self-gratification while admiring my self-issued, imaginary Masters Degree in Personal Vibrancy.

In a few minutes the stunning light fades. We drove from the East over Logan Pass. Literally 300 meters from the Pass this view suddenly becomes available. Our timing to see a setting Sun find a small opening to set this section on fire is humbling.
Never count on random people to transform your life. However, sometimes it happens. Enjoy the karma you project.

Meeting Steve and Stacy Wahlberg on the backside of Reynolds Mountain at 8,600′ is absolute randomness.
World-class randomness for sure.
We saw something in each other, without trying.
The Universe aligned us that cold, windy, yet brilliantly sunny morning.
We were the only three people on the mountain.
i was hiding from the harsh wind behind the lone boulder in the expansive scree field.
They were heading up for their 12th Reynolds summit, in honor of Stacy’s father, a true mountain man.

15-second 2020 video: As the camera pans you immediately see Pollock Mountain, Mt Siyeh, and Piegan Mountain.5-second 2020 video: Acknowledged the news of Covid-induced, 30,000 Cast Member layoff. Had no idea what to say, so i kept it simple and gut-level.
These two videos remind me of the September 30, 2020 Oberlin (8,200′) summit.
In the moment, it felt scarier than the close (15′?) Grizzly Bear encounter at Granite Park – the one where i had to turn my back on the Grizzly and continued walking.
A rare – and a first – sunset summit.
Just a quick jaunt up and back. Shoot a couple client videos from the summit. Then boogie on down to the car.
Without explanation, i got lost on the summit and couldn’t find my way down.
Have written about it before and will spare a rehash now.
What’s noteworthy in this post is the spectrum of emotions captured on these two videos. And, the emotions never captured on video that evening.
Duplicate Update: Starting tomorrow all five blogs become an “unthemed-canvas” of sorts. The normal mind-body-spirit-work-home theme goes on hiatus until this “couple-week project” concludes.

Was afraid of falling just from watching this video on a laptop, sitting at my home office desk.
