Today's run started at the apartment house where Mike lives. He is doing better. I left him in his chair leaning back and overall in a lot better shape. No need today to go and get his bandage changed. Yesterday they put a silver bandage under the big one, and it can stay unchanged
for a couple of days. Maybe even 3 to 7 days soon. My run was to the water tower on the "hill". By the way no mountains in Texas, that I personally have seen. The hills all seem to have water towers on them. The little water tower that I am running to pokes up in the left side of the middle on this picture.
The TV ad for the Governor candidate, running against the incumbant, just said that their were 268,000 square miles of mountains and other stuff here. Hills, I think she meant.
This hill reminds me of the upper end of Olympus Cove and a weekly route I used to run. Notice the water tower is now in sight. Kind of like being out running isn't it. This is such a great trip I am taking you on. No sweat. Course that is the downside of it for you, no sweat.
Running North to the tower. Then we will turn right to the west.
If you look close in the middle of this picture, way off in the green, you might find another water tower. We could run out there, turn left, and go 45 + miles to the South, and we would be in San Marcos and would go right through Austin on the way.
This picture is back almost to the apartment. The grade schools next door. The sign shows clearly, perhaps, the good news. At this grade school everyone gets A+'s. It is right there on the sign

Today, is a day where I "know not what reason knows". I know that having watched to much TV myself these last few days that there seems to be little "reason" on it. I have watched the Colbert report and the Daily show. I think I have only seen these shows twice ever by the way. The last time I was here week before last and then this week. I have seen both rerun by the way. I did look in on Leno and Letterman and CNN of course. I found little "reason". Limbaugh, by the way, was the best thing to happen to the news the last couple of days. I wish I could come up with some really good thoughts on my own today, but then it is a day I am enjoying without anything much running through my mind except being here, and in many ways that is maybe what this quote means. Perhaps.
