Day 3,019 —Painted Prairie—

 I felt happy watching the sky get brighter and looking at the clouds get pink before the sky glowed orange then red.

          The construction signs in the area boasted “Painted Prairie,” and I saw all the same types of house next to each other starting at 500,000. I wanted to find the park I saw on google maps, but I could not fine it. Instead, I ran through three different parks that were developed in the middle of these big houses. All I could think about is what the area looked like before it was leveled.

         Yesterday, after my conference I went for a short run, and then went for some laps in the pool. I was not in a pool that had a lap area, so I guessed how big the pool--it was fun to swim! That was probably the longest I have swam in at least four years. I used to swim laps all the time when I was a little kid, but now I never swim, so it brought me back.

         It has been a great morning: happy Tuesday all!
