No harm, just ooomph

“What would become of us if everything that happens out there were quite clear to us?” From All quiet on the western front that I finished in 2 days. Horrors of WWl.

Monday I felt too bad to join Aaron & Ruth @ black canyon. I hung @ VOC. Late in afternoon I did some diaphragm breathing which made made me feel way better, i could have ridden, but I didn’t. I hung in the parking lot S of Bnb. Several people visited, including Dick & Cheryl who have road adventures.

Rented a movie then drove out to Beaverhead. My preferred spot was occupied as is tonight. White popup type trailer stands out very plainly seen from long ways downhill. My green van doesn’t shout out see me but the horizontal lines break up the juniper back drop.

Drove down to DR’s office in same parking lot where I park planning on getting a blood draw for cholesterol after fasting since dinner b4. Office opened @ 1:00. Shit. Made appointment for stress test Thurs AM after the RV repair shop reinstalls the accumulator in the plumbing line.

Mosquitoes @ Beaverhead.

Today I drove back to parking lot and geared up for a quick solo ride. I needed to know my heart strength and quality. I rode up Shades, made the high point then savored the down hill to templeton sharing it w/ several large groups of hikers. Rode down the wash to easy breezy wash up to connector to shades then back to BnB. Heart rate was high but no pounding in my chest.

Drove back to west sedona for a shower then to Jason’s house for a lesson in nutrition. Information exchange lasted 1 1/2 hours. he joined me @ New Frontiers to shop for his recommended items. $126 there and another $56 @ the other health food shop. Tomorrow after my blood draw I will ingest Fluvic acid and MSM to detox, and mushrooms tea to clear my lungs. I am committed to this natural regime w/ expectation that this natural path will cure.

Out to Beaverhead again. Nice night w/ side door open w/ mosquitoes accepting the invitation.

last night was first night w/o Ambien. I awoke about 4AM w/ a tripping start, where was I? Couldn’t fall back to sleep. I am doing situps on my bed b4 bfast. Able to do 20 pushups.

Tomorrow I plan on a longer ride out on dry Creek.
