Sunday afternoons are perfect for a bicycle ride. The hike and bike trail isn’t crowded, so I don’t have to navigate around families with small children and dogs taking up the whole width of the trail. Despite signs advising people not to walk more than two abreast, this rule is often ignored. However, on Sunday afternoons, I don’t have to worry about it. 😁

This year, our pepper harvest is abundant! The early start seems to have paid off. Over the next few weeks, we’ll enjoy jalapeños, scotch bonnets, ghost peppers, Brazilian starfish peppers, and what appears to be banana peppers (although I’m not entirely certain). ️️️

My friend and I went to the theater tonight to watch When Marnie Was There. I remember thinking it was very good, but now I’d rate it as “excellent.” Such an emotional film… it might even be one of my favorite Ghibli movies now!

I’m now practicing the song “Fine On The Outside” which is a strumming song, and something I haven’t really played before. Fun!
