150 miles every week

Biked from Disney’s North border to Celebration Place.

When we returned permanently to Orlando in 1984, we owned one car.

My first Disney role as River Country Lifeguard required a 36-mile roundtrip bicycle ride from our apartment in Kissimmee.

The second role in Resort Hotel Operations mandated a 30-mile one-way bike ride from Poinciana to Disney’s Contemporary Resort.

Only completed the Poinciana roundtrip version once. Sixty miles plus an 8.5-hour shift, meant i left Magic Kingdom at 12:20AM and biked through the night arriving home at 2:45AM.

Grateful to have had a neighbor who worked the same 4PM – Midnight shift with the same days off, and had a pickup truck i could throw my bicycle into and catch a ride home 5 nights a week.

Nice 30-miler

Nice 30-miler.

Not in a boat.

On a bicycle.

Can’t recall the last time i rode 30 miles in a day.

Maybe Glacier National Park in June 2019.

Or in the mid-1980’s every day to work from our Poinciana home to Disney’s Contemporary Resort for my 4PM – midnight front desk shift.

Initiate movement

Initiate movement.

For the past three weeks, i’ve seen more people outside each week than i see in an entire year.

People will stop moving outside once they realize a lifetime of outside exercise is too much effort.

But for you, congrats on using your common sense.

As we get older, reaping what we have sown becomes increasingly more important.

Slow down, entering opportunity

A small general store, a small bar and grill, a few cabins, and a dirt road. Oh, and big skies and mountains.

Slow down, entering opportunity.

Polebridge, pictured here, is a tiny, remote settlement in Glacier’s Northwest corner.

The Mercantile is famous for their pastries. It’s literally the only reason to drive here.
