Hodge Podge and update on exercise

 Sometimes I scroll through some saved photos, and scratch my head, when will I ever be able to post these? So here are some of them, without much relation to one another.

Today (Saturday writing this while snowbound) it's cold still here. I've been doing cardio workouts with a video, as well as a strength training video. As well as my physical therapy exercises from last spring...as I have the written pages for the PT. 

I woke up this morning with my limbs feeling much more flexible! Wow. My torso is also responding with some muscles working, rather than letting the flab take over. I will keep doing these indoor exercises in the living room! Having immediate (one week) results gives me such a personal boost. I'm also saving the money it would cost to drive to Asheville to the gym. Now I know why people go to closer ones, and if I decide to do that, I'll consider the local YMCA first.

A very wise man there.

I'm in awe of all that aviation has achieved in the 19th-21st centuries (remember hot air balloons?)
