A Good Saturday

Today has been a good Saturday. I woke up and cooked my usual breakfast: two fried eggs sunny side-up, three slices of Blue and Gold bacon (the best!), hashbrowns (that I shredded myself), and two slices of toast chased down by a glass of cold milk. It's one of my favorite meals to cook.

After milling about for a bit around the house, I went to one of my favorite places to hike: Osage Hills State Park. It offers easy trails with moderate challenge, but it is peaceful. I found my usual place overlooking the lake there and sat watching the calmness of it. I prayed to God and worshipped Him there.

I can tell I am out of shape. I felt winded after completing the hike, and my feet are now sore. I need to get to the gym and start my routine over again. The last few months have not been kind as I have gained weight especially because of the medication I am now on.

On the way home, I stopped at an observation point to take the following picture:

I love how on the top of this hill, it gives an awesome view of the downtown area of Bartlesville, OK, and all the way to the hospital. Such a beautiful scene and I was finally able to capture it.

I finished painting some of my "Heroquest" figures last night, and will probably paint some more tonight or tomorrow. I am happy with how they turned out.

It was very therapeutic to paint these, and I even had Robert Jordan's "Eye of the World" book playing on my CD player. I love how my hero figures look, and I can't wait to show off the monsters the "Heroquest" game comes with.

Until next time...
