Good morning from Rising Sun Motor Inn and Cabins

Yesterday we made only one quick stop here for a photo.

Last night on the way to dinner. Bear in left corner.

 

Had the foresight to bring a third small backpack (we each only needed one) to carry wool hats, gloves, and vests.

Daytime highs in the 70’s. Nighttime lows near 50. Add the elevation and windchill.

We were ‘cold’ from the minute we exited Kalispel airport yesterday.

Dear Son, it’s evident you’ve begun your revelation into understanding the importance of a healthy body. Your motives for exercising will ebb and flow over time. Eventually your motive will simply be to remain healthy and active.

And you will get to this place when you fully understand that being as healthy as you can be is directly linked to personal integrity, gratitude, and happiness.

Life is hard son

Boy on bicycle in Central Florida neighborhood
So many easy options and distractions at our disposal

 

Life is hard son.

You’ve heard it in your house dozens of times:

Find a million ways to stay motivated.

Life gets even harder when we are not vibrantly healthy.

It’s that simple.

Create a mantra(s) that works for you.
