Another gorgeous day. Bought some shrubberies on the way home -- red currants and a forsythia! I've been wanting to grow currants and raspberries for about 25 years. Now well on my way. Then, hiked up Near Point. Today will be a good baseline for my summer fitness improvements. 1:45 to the top. Time doesn't include time on top. Some nice flowers that I don't usually see because I don't usually get out so early in the summer. Bought a ticket to Boise last night and hope that will help motivate me. Dan and I talked about O stuff on the way down (the EMIT systems we're borrowing for the summer, remapping the north part of Bi- Park, the concept of hosting an A meet/O fest 'after retirement').
