    A sure sign of our first heat wave of the summer: women who normally wear trousers to work are showing up in skirts and dresses. Me included.

    Another sign of the heat: the garbage trucks reek, especially noticeable when you're stuck behind one on a bike.

    Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.

    What's up with all the hipster new businesses in the neighborhood not posting their hours? Of course the newest brewery isn't going to be open at 6:30 a.m. when I went past on my run but if they had their hours posted I could better make plans to come try their beers. Seems like almost all these businesses do the same thing.

    You're supposed to find them on FB, not just show up.

    In my opinion, businesses often do a lousy job, both on FB and on their websites, of stating essential information, like operating hours. It baffles me.
    Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
