I simply acquired again from visiting my brother Bill in Phoenix. It can get sizzling there by April, however I used to be fortunate. It was good and funky every morning, and solely acquired hotter within the afternoons (80s most days, low 90s a few days). We went for hikes within the lovely South Mountain Park proper subsequent to Bill’s home. I solely took in the future off, deciding to present my calf muscle tissues a relaxation as a result of they acquired sore. I hadn’t been doing as a lot strolling or mountain climbing at dwelling not too long ago on account of my SI joint downside, and I suppose biking by itself wasn’t sufficient to maintain my calves in form. The hikes turned out to be a fantastic take a look at for me, we went greater than 90 minutes every day. Quite an enchancment over not having the ability to stroll greater than 5 minutes just a few weeks in the past!

Aside from our native hikes and outings (Phoenix has much more restaurant selections than does the neighborhood of Morgan Hill), we did one journey to the Phoenix artwork museum and one other to the small city of Carefree subsequent to Scottsdale. All in all a fantastic journey and nice to see Bill and my nephew Tommy. It hadn’t been down there since earlier than Covid, and resolve to not let that a lot time move earlier than my subsequent go to.
