Wednesday morning has been hiking day for a while. Today Joanne had asked Martha for a shaded route on what was forecast for a hot day. She suggested the Coal Mine Ridge trail, which was new to me. It was a nice trail, shaded most of the way. “Only” 500 feet of elevation gain, compared to 650 at Wunderlich last week. It wasn’t really hot, just high 70s, but when I got home I had to change shirts.
Later I answered a query from the income tax preparer and did a bit other stuff. Played a little guitar for the first time in several days. Studied some of the packages recommended by Claude. I don’t know; I think I need to give up. I’m not a programmer any more. Too out of date, and find it too hard to give it the intensive focus it needs.
