Good afternoon from rainy Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA. I'm glad it's raining. We need it badly. We'll have showers until Saturday morning, so I won't be walking the trails from now until Saturday. It's been a good day. I'm thankful I woke up at 2:15 this morning. I got what I needed to get done before I left. I'm thankful for my friend who signed up at the Kroc Center yesterday and took me with her this morning at 5:45. The pool was awesome. Now, I'm a lap swimmer. I'm not into water walking, but WOW! this water walking was totally different from any water walking I've done in the past. There's a wild current to move you along. I loved it. I did laps for 45 minutes and then the circular walking for another half hour. It was an amazing time in the pool. I'm going back tomorrow and every day I can be there. So, I'll be up at 2:30 every morning again. I'm so happy and thankful. I'll need two towels from now on. They don't have suit spinners. So, I need one towel for my suit. I'm thankful I could walk the trail this morning when I got back. It didn't start raining until afternoon. I'm thankful for the work I did on Faith to Believe. It's coming along well. I should have this edit done well before the end of the year and look at publishing it soon after the first of the year. I might work on In the Hands of Mighty Men. I don't know yet. I'm thankful for the nap I got. I only had four hours of sleep last night, so the hour and a half nap I got felt great. I'm thankful for the time I spent with you. I love knowing how you're doing in your corner of the world. Okay, that's my day. Time to get off the computer and work on the foot cycle and watch television. What are you thankful for today? Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me. Green Bay's only museum across the river from the Fox River Trail.

I'm thankful for the slight and brief cooldown no matter how brief it might be. I'm thankful I got a lot accomplished today even if it was quiet online. Which suits me just fine.

I’d like to visit Green Bay someday. I’m thankful for the bag of free Walmart samples the delivery driver left outside my door today. They do that about twice a year, and it’s always appreciated. Anything free is almost always good to me.

Lot of activity in the Pool !! Good that you would get nice rains. Here too, recent rains habd helped make the weather more pleasant. In particular, it rained heavily last Friday and Sunday. And a little bit almost each day. We could see more rains going forward. The River view looks awesome!

you make me wish I knew how to swim. Just never learned, I think about once the kids are gone, maybe I'll go to a senior center some place and learn how to swim.

I am thankful for the nap I got today. Neither Mike or I slept well last night, and the nap was much needed. Glad that you enjoyed the time in the pool. And for the work you got done on your book.
