Around the ann loop with Rhonda and then we came back to a lonely looking dog, so took her on the hospital loop and stopped off to watch her eat apples for a while. She is packing on the weight, as it is a fine year for apples here.

4x12 dumbbell bench presses, 1 set of 10 ring pullups. R shoulder is weak for pushups or bench presses, doesn't matter for pullups, though.

At Lake McDonough, including a little research to see if there was a way around the apparent island at the SW corner of the lake. There was a narrow channel about 100 ft long with a fallen log across either end. Scrunched myself down and got under the first one, but not enough clearance for the second, so a mini-portage as I stepped across the log and pushed the boat under. A very sparky headwind on the way back. Rhonda was disappearing in the distance. Certainly plausible that she is a fair amount stronger, but I think my boat being taller and heavier may be a factor in a headwind, too. relive.

Note
We were just leaving to meet our friends Mike and Cindy for dinner in Bantam when Zack spotted a very large bear trotting around in the middle field, heading left for a while then turning back right and shambling in the general direction of the apple trees. Probably in the 350 to 400 range. I came outside and he fixed me with his best "who the hell are you" stare, and then I devised the plan to get in the car and go drive over an harass him away. Turned out the car was locked! That almost never happens here. So by the time I get a key and unlock it, drive out to the apple trees, he has ripped off half of the smallest apple tree and moved on to our peach tree, stripped all the peaches and smashed the tree to the ground. The peach tree is only a couple of years old and was straining under the weight of about 10 very nice peaches. I had looked at them this morning and decided to give them one more day before taking them into the house.
Anyway, dinner was good. Arethusa.
