A little hesitation concerning my bum left knee, but I&#8217;m going to wear a brace and I have my ice and compression brace along, too. The knee doesn&#8217;t like being in one position though an angle is best. That I can achieve in the car. Road trips. I love&#8217;em. Very American, very Midwestern. Conifer to Fridley is almost exactly the same distance as Paris to Rome, it&#8217;s neither a long nor a short trip.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re well into the meteorological spirit of fall here on Shadow Mountain, so I&#8217;ll be driving into warmer weather for the most part, I imagine. Minneapolis has torrential rains predicted for today through tomorrow morning. Hope I miss them.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m excited to see the fall colors in Minnesota.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s different here.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_42555\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-42555\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-42555 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ancientrails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/shadow-mtn-dr-1200x569.jpg\" alt=\"shadow-mtn-dr\" width=\"610\" height=\"289\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ancientrails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/shadow-mtn-dr-1200x569.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.ancientrails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/shadow-mtn-dr-420x199.jpg 420w, https:\/\/www.ancientrails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/shadow-mtn-dr-744x353.jpg 744w, https:\/\/www.ancientrails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/shadow-mtn-dr-768x364.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 610px) 100vw, 610px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-42555\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shadow Mountain Drive<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_42556\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-42556\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-42556 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ancientrails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/conifer-mtn2-1200x363.jpg\" alt=\"conifer-mtn2\" width=\"610\" height=\"185\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ancientrails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/conifer-mtn2-1200x363.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.ancientrails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/conifer-mtn2-420x127.jpg 420w, https:\/\/www.ancientrails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/conifer-mtn2-744x225.jpg 744w, https:\/\/www.ancientrails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/conifer-mtn2-768x233.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 610px) 100vw, 610px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-42556\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">conifer mtn<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_42557\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-42557\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-42557 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ancientrails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/conifer-mtn-1200x390.jpg\" alt=\"conifer-mtn\" width=\"610\" height=\"198\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ancientrails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/conifer-mtn-1200x390.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.ancientrails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/conifer-mtn-420x136.jpg 420w, https:\/\/www.ancientrails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/conifer-mtn-744x242.jpg 744w, https:\/\/www.ancientrails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/conifer-mtn-768x249.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 610px) 100vw, 610px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-42557\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">conifer mtn.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lugnasa \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Harvest Moon Shower pan installed yesterday, additional support for grab bars (aging in place accoutrement), final decisions on niches and some extra work on\u00a0the pebbles that will &hellip;
