Happy Birthday to Me!

It was a hot and humid hike this morning but I guess it's gonna get a lot hotter before the cold front comes through this evening. A good afternoon to get the hose out and wash the screens and maybe the cars.

Yesterday was the first day I really felt hungry. I was keeping my calories down to allow for leftover rabbit and pasta at dinner and I wasn't burning many calories in exercise so I didn't have much room to negotiate. But I had the dinner to look forward to and it almost felt good t...
