feet 2

The picture was taken because my legs were so brown not necessarily because my feet looked like they had been dipped in bleach. They weren't by the way. I suppose it could be concluded that this blog "hit bottom", finally, but then if we put it up to vote the problem is that we only have about 5 registered voters.................... and that total might be a little overconfident on my part. If the total it is true however I figure my vote counts "6 times". Anyway after 10 miles today it wasn't my legs that were tired but I was indeed a little more tired than usual.

I forwarded a copy of this picture to my running friend of 25 years, up North, just to say hello, so I have gotten a lot of "mileage" out of this picture. Since it is "Labor Day" I guess ? there is more to celebrate than my feet.

Labor Day is a United States federal holiday observed

on the first Monday in September. The holiday originated

in 1882 as the Central Labor Union (of New York City)

sought to create "a day off for the working citizens".

Traditionally, Labor Day is celebrated by most

Americans as the symbolic end of the summer

Summer ending today with this holiday and that is ok since Fall is the best time of year in my opinion. Today was the first day that I opened my office window and just let the air come in.

The Poet’s Mind
Vex not thou the poet’s mind

With thy shallow wit;

Vex not thou the poet’s mind,

For thou canst not fathom it.

Clear and bright it should be ever,

Flowing like a crystal river,

Bright as light, and clear as wind.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
