Yes, it’s been a month since I’ve updated anything here at Statrix. It’s been both good news and bad. The bad news is that there have been significant health issues involving more than one member of my family, though I’ve been fine. That’s really taken me out of my routine and involved multiple inter-island trips.
The good news is that everyone seems to be recovering. Whew.
As for me, I’ve done no photography lately, have had to miss most of the Rainbow baseball season since I last mentioned it, and have done almost no bicycling save for the odd bit of commuting. Believe me when I say I’d trade it all for everyone’s health. I’m not complaining, just noting.
Now for the complaining…
My Oregon coast trip is still on and starts pretty darn quickly. Sadly I’m completely out of shape. It’s going to be…um…painful. We don’t have any super-hard or long days so I’m not too concerned. Last time I checked, which was recently my resting heart rate was still excellent for a someone my age and weight. I still bike daily when I’m on the island and if I haven’t been putting in the miles neither have I completely forgotten how to ride a bike.
In any case I’m really looking forward to the trip, even the suffering. There’s been a lot of stress in my life lately and I’m looking forward to burning it all off.
I plan on documenting things here a bit better now that my trip is nigh. I’m also planning on making a ton of images (how much do pixels weight anyway?) on my trip.
So think of this post as an aspiration, if not a promise.
Aloha!
