Thurs 27 Sept

Finally get to walk with Kathy again this morning, a chilly but only partly cloudy morning. Looking forward to catching up with her. Started trying to form conversations in my head in basic French. I think this is a necessary step to actually be able to use what I'm learning on Duolingo, so I hope I continue to do so. I used to do it in Spanish, particularly before traveling to Mexico, so I hope it will be useful. It wasn't supposed to rain this morning, but it started to sprinkle while Kathy and I walked. We were sufficiently motivated to walk together again that we didn't mind (too) much, but we did get a little wet. Food: 7:20 am Bear claw pastry, 101 g blackberries, coffee 12:05 pm Sausage stew Exercise: 8:00-9:35 am Walk w/Kathy (Bukolt loop in the rain)
