I am sitting at the computer as the light streams in as I blog today. I am sporting my favorite flannel and sipping hot chocolate- I love Autumn. The grass is fresh with morning dew. It was hard to get the troops going this morning. We spent Sunday on Cedar Mountain with a view to take your breath away. It was the perfect "deer camp" and provided great reception to listen to General Conference.
In between sessions, we wandered a bit.

We came to Cedar Breaks a lot when I was a kid. We had picnics here, family reunions, and hiked to grandpa's tree. I love the beauty of the breaks. I am inspired by Henry David Thoreau's quote. I think Rigby is too. He wanders so much. I believe if he had a pen in hand he would write much the same thing.

“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practise resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms...” Henry David Thoreau

The age 43 has done something to me.... more wrinkles, more tummy rolls, more tired... yikes. I don't like this thing called age. I eat raisins, and beets, and count my calories.
