"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!

13-2

In Washington as the sun faded so I headed for a road I could see headed steeply up.  Only problem was, there was a gate partway up preventing further progress.  So I've learned a path not to take in the future.  Stats today:  1.0 mile walked, with 177 feet climbed, in 18:45.  This included a loop back up part way.  Average grade:  6.7%

Chapter 13 totals through 2 days, 2.3 miles walked, with 557 feet climbed, in 58:45.

Today's final word ...

From reading in 1 Nephi 14 and more ...

"Line upon line and precept upon precept, gradually and almost imperceptibly, our motives, our thoughts, our words, and our deeds become aligned with the will of God. Conversion unto the Lord requires both persistence and patience."


Cheerio!
