May the 4th be With You! - 2025

 

Chris on the Ride

And here we are again, coming into some of the most interesting celebrations of the year. 

Today is, of course, Star Wars Day. Tomorrow is Cinco de Mayo. I messed up during March and almost missed Pi Day which is another celebration that I enjoy. 

This morning, rain permitting, I am off to play golf. Something I did almost religiously on Sunday mornings a few years ago. I am headed out with new acquaintances with whom I have never played. I haven't swung a club since January--it should be comical. 

Great Blue Heron

Yesterday, Chris and I managed a short 10-mile bike ride. It was the first time I've ridden with Chris in a while. She did very well and we will be working to get her back into riding shape. There are a few trail rides, mostly under 20 miles, that I'd like to do around Florida with her. 

For the evening, we dined with friends in Port St Luce. We enjoyed reconnecting and sharing dinner. While there, I spied a heron around their lake that was just perfectly posed for a picture. I was a good distance from the bird, but I think, all-in-all, the image came out OK. 

A busy and enjoyable Saturday.
