    Apples are just perfect right now. So many lovely varieties.

    I found a spot nearby to deposit all my cans and bottles that have a deposit on them.  It's so close and i never knew it was there!

    Woo hoo, today is the last day!  As much as I enjoy tracking things, I am kind of glad I won't have to do that anymore.

    I actually had never heard of a food desert before.  If someone doesn't have easy access to a store in their neighborhood they might find it hard to provide for themselves or their family.

    I began this challenge to encourage my efforts at mindfulness. I feel like it's helped. I've enjoyed the support of fellow participants and interacted with people I might not have otherwise, so it's been a refreshing infusion. Thanks, everyone, for your kind words and camaraderie!

    I took my brother out for his birthday last night: dinner at Outback, haunted house at VMC, and dessert at Pied Cow. It was fun. Haven't done the haunted house thing in over 35 years. It was good for some laughs, a few scares, and I may have blurted out a few obscenities.
