#51 Done

Graduated from hiking to this 6am crap. A month into it has me a little healthier, but a lot more angry.

Someone needs to chill the f out.

To the gramps I never knew.

After a two year hiatus as a starting pitcher, Alex finally took the mound in the first and earned the win.

Dramatic thrillers with fly fishing sprinkled in. Loved them both. Especially the latter.

Production meeting in the Ozarks with our clients in Bentonville, Arkansas.

Morning view in the Ozarks.

Business meeting on Lake Beaver, Arkansas.

If any team other than the Giants were to win the World Series, I’m happy it was the Braves. Devin’s former high school teammate, Max Fried, earned the win.

#17. Achieve 20% yearly gain on day trading account

Down 16% in September, up 45% in October. I need to do the same in November to keep this goal in play.

24 years ago. Yikes.

Kaden pitched a perfect game with 11 strikeouts in Fall ball last weekend, and yesterday, he was informed that he made Varsity as a sophomore.

For the first time in six years, Alex is finally a free agent. He signed with the defending champs of the Puerto Rican baseball league to showcase his talents and hopefully earn himself an invite to Spring Training in the states.

#32: Sleep on a boat.

Lake Powell. Hope it’s still around in 10-20 years.

#20: Read 20 30 Books

I’ve enjoyed most of her books, but this story was a bit much.

Sonia hustled for 6 months to get a reservation at this underground tasting experience housed in the Beastie Boy’s former music studio. It didn’t disappoint.

Tough way to end a dream season. On the bright side, the rest of my October just opened up.

After a couple of canceled flights, we managed to book the last two seats on Jetsuitex and landed in Oakland with a couple of hours to spare before game time. Go Giants!

Celebrating the Giants’ win with some bowling in Koreatown.

Enjoyed the fly fishing scenes, but not the overall story.

First time in five years that Hemingway went to the Vet and the news was good. Diagnosis: A healthy, cancer free senior dog. Biggest surprise was that his heart murmur regressed (Rarely happens). It went from advanced heart disease one year ago to very mild today. I will now add his supplement regime to my own. Look into these Grandpa. CoQ10 and Artemisinin.

#51 Cardio

Heading into week 10 a bit healthier.

#88: Go to a Bears game.

Bears are bad. Rams stadium is cool.

Enjoyed.

Under two hours to Big Bear, yet it was our first trip there in twenty years.

#28: Achieve 20% yearly gain on day trading account

Up 28% in August. Will need to average that for the next four months to cross off this goal. And I’ll need to do it entirely with crypto. Today I liquidated my day trading accounts, because day trading requires too much math, and I hate math.

Benign, but entertaining.
