In preparation for my upcoming quest, I began a partial fast.
A 1 lb summer sausage I bought before leaving Hornbrook,
along with a package of Chocolate Chip Cookies and a box of Cheeze Crackers
was my entire intake for the trip to Concord and the entire week following my arrival.

Visited George so had mood levelor during transition period.

Daily routine for the 3 weeks was pretty regular:
8 AM = wake & check e-mail & messages.
9 AM = drive to Briones Park & hike 1-5 miles with Sonny running 3-5 times that.
11-12 Noon, stop back at the house & check messages again.
1 PM - whenever - stop to visit old friends.
Included Susie Newcome, Sue West, Tim, Stef & Chuck, & Stan & Charlotte.
Saw Cindy & Chris & Carol at Ken Rudd's place.
Chris & her Husband are moving to Idaho!
Carol got married and is moving to Montana! So we might be neighbors!
