The days seem cooler…at
last. I love birds…but we have few. I am charmed by trees, but here again we have
palm trees and alders. We do have
heat. Ugly hot sticky stuff coming up
from the south. I can’t imagine how the
players have been doing in the long damp heat of Rio’s winter.
Yes, despite politics,
despite local disasters, we have the Olympics and Rio in 100% humidity. It may only be 70 degrees F, 21 degrees there, but that 100% humidity would drive anyone into air
conditioning. The Olympics are outdoors, and amid the
problems of polluted waters and polluted players, there have been some golden
moments.
There’s Bolt. There’s Phelps, but to cheer the
soul now there is also Ledecky. I love
that woman. Abbey D'Agostino of the U.S.
and New Zealand's Nikki Hamblin touched our hearts. Did I say how much I enjoyed the rowing, the
shooting, and the beach volleyball.
The days seem cooler, and
we have had the magic of the Olympics.
It is good to read that you are feeling well. It is obvious you have the energy for renewal in your life.
ReplyDeleteThe Olympics have definitely offered a bright spot on the TV. Now we can get into the fall shows. There were definitely some outstanding performances at the Olympics.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you're feeling better. The Olympics kind of wore me out, but I so loved runners Nikki Hamblin and Abbey D’Agostino, there really are some great people in the world.
ReplyDeleteBeach volleyball!
ReplyDeleteIt was fun, but I'm eager to get back to regular programming and the fun of new shows next month!
ReplyDeleteThat photo makes me homesick for the California coast.
ReplyDeletewe've had a brief cooling before it heats up again, but maybe the next round won't get quite as hot.
ReplyDeleteWonderful news. I love the swimmers, and this year enjoyed the women's soccor until the US lost.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it wonderful to feel good? Blessings to you! I'm feeling good as well. I've been going for weekly adjustments to my sacral joints and lower spine, so things are right on track there. Hugs to you and G.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are feeling well. Nothing better. I watched Olympics sporadically and feel quite proud that we are not just the poor relation with regard to sport now. We used to blame it on the fact we didn't have enough meat during the war: }
