2/10/2006 - Various sundries
Tonight I feel a little alone. The baby has a bad cough -- bad enough that the wife took him off to see the doctors, leaving me and my eldest at home. My eldest has taken to falling asleep more easily, so now I am by myself, blogging.
The baby is really in fine shape, so the two of them will be home later, but the line can be long at the hospital, so I'll have some time.
I often imagine myself actually taking this hike. I imagine walking 20 or so miles a day and staying in hotels at night (I really don't like camping out). But then I often think of how lonely it would be, night after night on this glorious hike, with or without cable TV at night.
And if I were by myself, I would have missed evenings like tonight. Tonight we played trumpet for the first time in a month. My eldest hit a high C (C above middle C, if I have that right). Beats walking to Alaska any day.
10,000 contented steps today. Cheers,

solitary splendor. Hmm, now there's a concept. Something that might require locking the bathroom door, eh?
