A quick midday look…Hurricane Ian is moving south of Orlando.
Screenshot of TV hurricane coverage
After airport drop off, we stopped in Columbia Falls for some groceries. Cheryl shopped. i watched live hurricane coverage. At 3:05 PM (1:05 PM Mountain Time) Ian makes landfall at 150mph.

Grateful for not having a projected direct hit. All we can do is wait overnight for reality to unfold.

Heading right for us. Surrender is not a partial effort. All in or you’re not all in.

We close out today with a small taste of Highline Trail for Barb and Chuck.

First, didn’t realize this was historical for Barb — overcoming a severe fear of heights.

Second, in the long line of four grades from Kalispell, we saw two children (3rd and 8th grade) we recognized. We met them and their Family at Sperry Chalet two weeks ago.

Small World.

Note: GoDaddy has fallen usually far away from their normal top-notch customer/technical service. And, seriously worried about our home, even though i’ve fully surrendered to Mother Nature.

Still migrating? Something ain’t right. Another call to GoDaddy.

One unexpected observation Cheryl and i have is how compatibly fit we are for high-elevation hiking.

An unintended advantage is our longevity in high-altitude air. The other is our confidence from so many different hiking scenarios.

We expect to be able to handle anything.

So far so good for Orlando.

Use decent logic to make decisions. Simple.

In the wild, logic gets skewed. Why? Because it’s the wild.
