I left work a little later than planned, so I stopped by Sar-Ko-Par (which is close by) and ran the sprint course before the sun set. Felt better than I expected, although I didn't really push it.
Control picking course at Wyandotte, after we flew home. Almost the same temp in K.C. as in N.O.; weird!
No energy mentally; maybe I should log this as "wandering"? Footing on the north slopes was treacherous: mud over frozen ground. Just as I was finishing and the sun was starting to set, I noticed eight(!) bald eagles soaring overhead. Very nice.
A lovely day walking around New Orleans. This was my first trip here (and means I can count Louisiana as my 45th state). Did the requisite stuff: beignets for breakfast, walking around the French quarter. Took a guided walking tour of the Garden District and then stopped by an independent fabric store to buy a "souvenir". Proprietor's son is a student at KU !
Followed by a Cajun meal with Mike's colleagues.I like these non-O trips once in a while. So easy to pack, such a relaxed day. It was especially nice to have no set schedule.
