The higher you climb

14-second video: Summiting Pollock Mountain. Too windy to stand. Too cold to stay. On top less than five minutes.

The higher you climb, the less that you know.

To be on the ground yet soaring above the rest of the world – surreal.

You see and feel and think differently than you ever have before.

This new knowledge enlightens. You pick the enlightenment insights.

7-second video: Can’t make this stuff up.

Hey, got an idea for a TED Talk…

How to live vibrantly, at any age.

She’s 71, i’m pushing 64.

Age is just a number.

Vibrantly is a result.

Better late

Better late than never.

Living in Fantasyland

5-second video: Fanatical attention to detail.
14-second video: Daily blogging often conjures up Magic.
10-second video: When you slow down (to speed up) Magic comes at you from all directions.

What do Magic and prolific daily blogging have in common?

Consistency.

Vision.

2020 flashback

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.
