Hey there, folks! Bill here, and let’s dive right into this Monday, which is, well, feeling like a classic Monday. It’s all coming back to me, especially last Friday. You see, I’m still a software guy at heart, and on that fateful Friday, I was supposed to create a flow chart. Sounds simple, right? Well, not so much. My co-worker and I couldn’t quite agree on what we wanted, and long story short, I ended up working an extra hour. Yep, that’s Friday for you.
But let’s turn our attention to today, shall we? Monday means picking up where we left off, but before we get into the nitty-gritty, I have some exciting news to share. I went hiking yesterday, and it was an absolute blast. A long, 10.5-mile hike that didn’t feel half as long because the sights were simply spectacular.
Spring is in full swing, and everything is turning a vibrant shade of green. I couldn’t resist stopping at times to capture the beauty of this lush greenery. And just when I was about to swing left and head up the Lantern Ridge, guess what? Snowfall! It was like a magical touch to the already stunning landscape.
Instead of tackling Lantern Ridge, I decided to venture a little further on the South Fork Lolo Creek Trail and then follow the creek back to capture some mesmerizing waterfall shots. But here’s where adventure met reality – once I hit the wilderness boundary, things got rugged and thick. It became clear that following the creek back wasn’t the best idea, so I retraced my steps.
As I made my way back, a storm tagged along, but just when I was within 3 miles of the trailhead, the sun burst through the clouds. And that’s when it happened – I captured a magnificent picture of a rainbow touching down right in front of me. Mother Nature sure knows how to put on a show!
After basking in the sun for a while, I headed home, but there was one small hiccup – a huge blister on my heel. So, this week’s project? Fix those boots, no doubt about it.
Don’t forget to check out the pictures from the hike for a visual treat. Until next time, keep exploring, stay prepared for Monday surprises, and always keep those boots in tip-top shape!
