The Finger of God

Finger of God
Patagonia, Argentina

My video biking trainer pointed out the Finger of God as I continued my biking workout through Patagonia yesterday. I tried to find the exact spot on a map, but could not. The rocks do look like the Finger of God pointing up to the sky. I'm glad that it was the index finger and not some other digit. I think the trainer said that we were riding the Road of Enchantment. 

I had an enjoyable and tough ride along a river while the snow was melting outside of my house. Another day of total escapism. I was lucky because I was delayed in going to work and I was able to ride before leaving the house. I almost didn't know what to do with myself when I got home in the afternoon because I and already done my ride for the day. 

It was better than the news of increasing mutant strains of COVID and a skyrocketing death count. 

I am becoming more burned out by the news. I think it is the mid-Winter burn-out while waiting for the promise of Springtime to get outside again and enjoy the world.
