My hike was exercise AND chillin....I really needed it between all the trips to Hospice. I'm so exhausted....attempting to get to bed early tonight. (Or I'll get sick for sure, and I need to be on top my game from now until Saturday)

I wish I had time to meander outside. I've just been getting  a quick half mile twice a day  and it's all exercise, not chillin'.

This tree is right outside my office window, north side.

On a brilliant crisp clear day like this, the sun shines on that tree, and the red light reflects into my office and the bathroom.  It's like someone is directing red spotlights into the house!  It's interesting and beautiful.
