Moderately short hike today. Abbreviated, actually. I was hoping to be out for around 2 hours. Due to a whole lotta pre-hike onion and other veggie chopping (prepping a late dinner) I didn't get out the door when I wanted so I had to cut my time a little short. Having to turn around and head back before I wanted to was certainly better than no hike at all!

plus:
I'm not a huge Johnny Cash fan... but perhaps that's a statement I really can't make considering I've never listened to more than a few songs. Since I don't know his music all that well, or actually close to not much at all, it makes it difficult for me to critique this tribute album. Or does it? 'Cause if these weren't Cash songs and this was just some collection of music, it's pretty good. Johnny Cash fans, though, might think differently. I know when I listen to Grateful Dead covers, it's pretty easy to decide if something's good or not, at least according to me. In any case, not my favorite bunch o' tunes but I enjoyed it.
Good little sermon, too. Bob Jones University Chapel Hour sermons are almost always a good listen. Since they mix up speakers almost daily and since there's an amazingly wide array of topics, they rarely bore me and often leave me feelin' pretty good.
