Yes, it is hot here on the Canadian prairies. I left early for my planned hike in the hills. For some reason, I packed a litre of water to take with me as I expected it to reach 30 Celsius by the time I finished my hike. I was thankful and avoided dehydration walking in full sunshine for more than two full hours. There was a lot of hill work in the hike and my legs definitely got a hard workout. Best of all, my hiking clothes didn\u2019t get soaked with sweat as they were tucked safely away in a small backpack with the water. Tomorrow I will again go out early. The plan is for a shorter walk as it is supposed to be hotter than today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With today\u2019s walk, I tried two extra loops on an old trail. The first followed a dirt road to reach the main grid road which farmers typically use. For a good two-hundred and fifty yards I would have been visible to any traffic travelling down the main gravel road. Because of the time of day, that road was quiet. The second loop took me down a steep hill to reach the valley plain and the edge of the golden field of canola. At the horizon is a farmyard of a family I know quite well. I didn\u2019t worry about being seen as their house is hidden behind the trees seen in the distance in the photo above, and they are currently enjoying some time at a lake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My new story is coming along quite well, in my opinion. As a result, the audio recording has slowed down. I do hope to record at least three more chapters next week. I have another project that I have begun working on, as well. I will speak more about it in the future as I learn more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
