The morning started out dark, cloudy, breezy,, foggy and cold – 47 degrees F. The lower atmosphere was filled with fog – visibility was about 1/2 mile, clouds in the South East. The autonomous car company was testing their vehicles, the flood lights were on. The rabbits were grazing on the soccer and baseball fields, while Labrona and mate were grazing by the fence near the basketball court. The rabbits were pretty good size. The beautiful dawn sky was on display, clouds in the suns path were red, peach and gray colors and analogous colors were on top of the fog. We had an early breakfast, no wild life appeared for breakfast, so the inmates left their food on the ground. As the sun rise through the fog and haze, the red sphere was big and round, as it ascended, it changed color to light red, orange, yellow and brilliant yellow. As it ascended past the fog, it illuminated the sky and warmed the air, The sun moved in and out of the clouds. The birds appeared after the sun rise and feasted on the food left by the inmates. Completed walking 6 miles at 7:40 AM, in 1 hour 14 minutes and 10 seconds. Average walking times were: 12 minutes and 22 seconds per mile or 50 seconds per lap on the basketball court. Stretched, split stretched and practiced Yoga at the basketball court in the morning sunshine until 8:50 AM. The stretch and Yoga practice felt good after the cold morning walk. I was able to exercise all phases: strength, flexibility, balance nd breathing. Finished my Yoga practice with the corpse pose. Talked to Doris at 9:00 AM: Doris is well and rested.
