"The Blog Almost Too Boring To Be The Most Boring Blog in America ... for Over 5 Years!"

until it got too many red cards from Wounded Duck and the Boredom Enforcement Committee ... now the tortoise's goal is to get to 10 red cards so he can get Big Dog to drive down and take a good long walk with the tortoise

P. S. This blog listens to its readers. We have the Benjamin Category Override for 5+ mile walks and now, it humbles Tortoise to say he has been named "Lou", by Doug Jr, in memory of Mr. Consistency himself, Lou Gehrig. Tortoise can hardly type the words to think he is in any way comparable to the noble Iron Horse. Thank you!

3-80

Finished my trip home today after being delayed long enough out of Jacksonville that I missed my connection in Atlanta last night.  Today's walk was across the airport terminal in Salt Lake City:  0.84 miles, with 23 feet climbed, in 15 minutes.  Chapter 3 totals are now 81.98 miles walked in 32 hours 29 minutes, with 4,580 feet climbed, and 11 swims totalling 4,240 meters in 4 hour 34 minutes.  Of course, that doesn't include the walking in Atlanta nor the best walk of the day ... the short one in St. George to curbside and Doug waiting to take me the last lap to La Verkin.  Thanks!

Here's a map and more:

Today's last word ... I read Alma 33, and its pleasing reminder that we can pray and converse with God wherever we are and whatever we are doing.  This communication is not limited to church or to a specific day:

 "For he said: Thou art merciful, God, for thou hast heard myprayer, even when was ain the wilderness; yea, thou wastmerciful when prayed concerning those who were mine benemies,and thou didst turn them to me.
"Yea, God, and thou wast merciful unto me when did cry unto thee in my afieldwhen did cry unto thee in my prayer, andthou didst hear me.
 "And again, God, when did turn to my house thou didst hear me in my prayer.
"And when did turn unto my aclosetLord, and prayed untothee, thou didst hear me."
                                                                                                   -- Alma 33:4-7
Cheerio!
