2024-09-22 (Sunday) — Regression to the Mean

(written on the 30th)

Not sure exactly why or how it happened, but I reverted right back to where I had been most of the previous week.

I was right back at my mountain parking spot. Pain and nerve issues.

All the efforts that I had made to cause myself to go into the MRI inflamed and what not so the MRI could catch everything it needed to… Those efforts didn’t take effect until after the MRI, and boy am I paying for them.

Ugh.

I’m also pretty depressed.

Once again, I spent the entire day, until the very end, at least, in my van staring at my phone screen.

😕

And yes, I think I have verified that somehow the open, but fairly steep meadow right before ducking into the trees to go up slide canyon’s trail to the waterfalls, has become a local favorite family photo spot.

Dressing up, expensive cameras, etc.

I wonder why it’s become such a hot spot for pictures.

Anyway, with the overall plan being to continue our journey tomorrow morning, with me picking my mom up at my aunt’s place in Payson, I spent the night at the Springdale Walmart, one of my go-to places from days long past.

And…. That was the day.
