Have you tried walking and reading?

Never knew it was a movie too. Maybe I'll watch it after I finish this book.

I'll try but I can't promise anything.

 

It's a short book.

 

Another free download, check your local laws to verify. Enjoy!

"Set on an island off the Scottish coast, To the Lighthouse minutely examines the fleeting impressions of a large cast of family, friends, lovers, and hangers-on. Who can we be, Virginia Woolf invites us to ask, if no one can ever know our hearts—if they’re unknowable even to ourselves? To the Lighthouse remains one of the most important Modernist novels, exquisitely composed by one of the most gifted writers of the Modernist movement."

The United States of America is officially over.

It is now Trumplandia.

I started The Deep History of Ourselves by Joseph LeDoux over the weekend. Reading Cosmos by Carl Sagan helped me understand the universe a bit more. Which made me want to understand humanity better. I suppose this is about how life evolved to give us the conscious brain that we currently possess.

I finished Brave New World by Aldous Huxley last week. It was okay. I'm sure if I had read it when it was first published, it would seem ground breaking.

Thanks! That's funny because I walked out of the edge of my town and walked the length of the next town and back.

A good life is a dull life. :)

There were some people on horseback so I did a light jog to get around them faster. That was probably when that happened.

I know how difficult it can be to start but it feels good once you do. Good luck to you! I look forward to seeing your 2 hour post! ;)

That's true, I can be a little stubborn with exercise induced pain. I’ll go back down to 1.5 hours for a few more weeks. Thanks!

I will start wearing my running shoes instead since they have a thicker sole. Thanks for the recommendation. :)

 

Well 1:54:15 but I rounded up. My feet hurt.

 

I've watched her videos for the past few years. She seems like a decent person who always gives it her all. I wish her the best. Enjoy.

I used walnut for the box and handcut dovetails for the joinery. I had triangular offcuts that I glued together to make the lid.

I made this a few years ago so I can't remember if I used handtools or a table saw to dimension the wood.

The finish is pure Tung Oil.

Thanks for reading!

A while back, I made an oak container using handtooled dovetails. I made it primarily to hold stationery and miscellaneous items for my desk.

The oak was “resawn” and dimensioned using a table saw and the dovetails were cut by hand. It’s a very easy project but it has come in handy.

Thanks for reading.

I used my 5qt Dutch Oven to deep fry some chicken and my 10" Lodge skillet to bake some cornbread. If I had thought about it before I started cooking, I would have used the 8" Lodge skillet to roast the broccoli in the oven too!

The oil was too hot when I added the chicken so it came out a little dark. I used seasoned panko style bread crumbs. The cornbread is just a premixed box. I usually try to make things from scratch but I just wasn't in the mood.

Enjoy!
