#Today 07.1

Good day!

Went to the library this morning. It’d been too long.

I literally can go from my door, down the Milwaukee Trail, and then take a spur trail to the crosswalk outside the library, including crossing the river on a pedestrian bridge.

Round trip? 5.2 miles (8.4k).

Be everwell.

I just published another free Geometry Nodes setup on Gumroad:
https://alemarcati.gumroad.com/l/geonodes_trails_v1

It generates a three-dimensional trail made up of curves, with lots of adjustable settings. Also, age and Lifetime of each strand is accessible from shader editor as attributes, enabling effects such as the color of the strand changing along its length.

Good day!

67 years ago, a breech birth, a “blue baby,” I wasn’t expected to survive the day.

I won’t keep you in suspense about how that turned out.

Beyond that, I’ll spend the day with Evie Cat and my characters, my family.

Be everwell.

#Today 06

Good day!

Deadwood, especially dried-out and bleached deadwood in alpine country, becomes art.

When I’m in the high country, it has a way of calling out to my imagination, but it’s whispers.

It says, “What do you think? Is this working?”

Yes, Mother Nature, always.

Be everwell.

#Today 05

Good day!

Spinach has returned!

I went food shopping yesterday morning and stopped dead in my tracks.

Beloved spinach (frozen).

It hasn’t been available here since last October.

I anticipated having it all day, and then, in the evening, I had my glorious spinach.

Be everwell.

We escaped the heat by hiking in the shady mountain forest by a beautiful river

The view looking up was as good as the view looking down.

Good day!

This mix of moss, pine needles, and plants I’m not familiar with was my trail on my last ridge hike.

Since was no real trail, it was impossible not to walk on what was softer than any carpet I’ve ever encountered.

This was a spot with few needles.

Be everwell.
