The morning started out dark, cloudy, breezy, hazy and cold – 36 degrees F. The lower atmosphere was filled with some spares clouds, light haze, fog in a distance and the breeze made the temperature felt colder. The autonomous car company had their facility and flood lights on but were not testing their vehicles, they usually test during the afternoon and evening. Rabbits were grazing on the soccer and baseball fields, while Labrona and family were grazing by the fence near the basketball court. The dawn sky was on display with band of red haze, analogous colors peeking over the Sierras and cirrus colorful clouds amid the dark blue sky. Breakfast was served early, no wildlife appeared after breakfast, so the inmates left their food on the ground and basketball court. As the morning progressed the cirrus clouds changed colors from orange, to peach, yellow, gold and white. As the sun rise over the Sierras, it illuminated the outline of the snow capped Sierras, brightened the sky and warmed the air. The birds appeared and feasted on food left by the inmates on the ground and basketball court. There must be over 300 birds in the flock. It was a cold morning and I was the only inmate walking on the trail until the end of my walk when another inmate appeared on the trail. Completed walking 6 miles at 7:40 AM, in 1 hour 14 minutes and 20 seconds. Average walking times were: 12 minutes and 24 seconds per mile or 2 minutes an d4 seconds per lap. Stretched, split stretched and practiced Yoga at the basketball court in the morning sunshine until 8:40 AM. The stretch and Yoga practice felt good after the cold morning walk. I was able to exercise all phases: strength, flexibility, balance and breathing. Finished my Yoga practiced with the corpse pose and visualized the beautiful dawn sky and spectacular sun rise. Opened my eyes to the clear Blue sky with some sparse Cirrus clouds, but clouds are moving in from the Northwest. Talked to Doris at 9:00 AM: Doris is well and rested. It was cold and raining in Pinole when she let the dogs out. Playtoh seems a little depressed as Bobo is not around to play with him. The repairman called Doris and will come by to fix the washer today. The GSW will play the Memphis Grizzlies tonight in San Francisco. Lunch was served at 9:30 AM. Luncheon menu: fried eggs, hash brown, biscuits with gravy, apple and water. Census count at 10:00 AM. Showered and changed to casual clothes at 10:30 AM.
