Can’t beat the dawn skate.

Another beautiful sky. Today, the sunrise seemed mellow after the red show that followed rain a few days ago. Sun rays lit those clouds you see below as they approached, giving the morning sky a sort of grandeur.

I realized I crushed my knees riding curved transitions like a surfer the other day—I can bend that low, but maybe I shouldn’t. It was a decent skate, but I have to get my diet in order. We did good last night, having salad for dinner, but the greens didn’t offset the buttered popcorn we had watching Thor: Love & Thunder. In the middle of my skate, I could feel the liquid butter slipping through my guts. To be fair, I skated harder to ignore the nasty feeling, though.
