Seemingly insignificant

This heart-shaped rock is insanely tiny inside Glacier National Park’s one-million acres. Cheryl noticed it.

Context. 

Cheryl noticed an infinitesimal spec as we hiked down the 6.5-mile rock covered trail. 

We admired the heart-shaped spot on the ground. 

We began walking away, and maybe 100’ past it, i stopped. 

Returning to the spot, i captured a few photos with some “team gear”. 

Almost didn’t.

Sperry Chalet, end of Day 2 with Cheryl. Arrival day isn’t counted in this day-tally. If it was, this would be relabeled to Day 3.

Home priorities drive decisions and decisions drive home habits.

High mountain coffee hour

Guitar in dining hall
Open mic. Last night.
  • Time stamping 2021 with Alberto and Luca.
  • Location and audience context.
  • Avery is a first year employee. She led the open mic. Wonderful, inspiring to see her outside her housekeeping role.
  • Ann is a professional violinist. She is Avery’s sole housekeeping colleague. Ann is covering her daughter’s final 3 weeks of an 11-week seasonal commitment.
  • Last night concluded superbly. Dawn (right now) is starting the same way…
Sperry Chalet Day 1 with Cheryl.

The day went opposite the way we hoped. We hoped for warm, sunny skies. Everyone knows it’s not what happens to you, it’s what you do with what happens to you. We had “sunny and warm” inside, all day.

Happy present 2022, home – Never forget the basics

Mountain Chalet
Corner room with shared balcony.
Caftan board game
Catan. After lunch. Fun. Passed time while room was being cleaned. 

Never get bored with the basics. Positive attitude. Physical vibrancy. Peace and contentment. Making your work, art. Being decently organizing at home.

Apple event ad
Returning to Sperry Chalet for the 2021 season’s final three nights. Will watch this after we return to the low country (3,200’) in West Glacier.

No one becomes the most organized person they know based on what they’re gonna do.
