With 3 miles walked at the local park today, i solidified my wanderlust fears with a self-talk/walk.
I begin the Sheltowee Trace Trail Hiker Challenge on the third weekend in January 2021. The Sheltowee is a 333 mile trail that goes from just North of Morehead, KY to just across the border South into Tennessee near Rugby.
The goal is to hike about 33 miles on average each of the 11 months with a second hike in October which has 5 weekends in it during the peak of Fall.
There will be one other hike sometime before June 5th that will help welcome in a spur @13 mile extension to the town of Rugby, TN as the trail expands with the help of dedicated volunteers.
I'm actually excited to have something to do this year and especially excited to be walking again ... as when my plans to hike the A.T. halted, i gained back 45# of unwelcomed blubber to my frame.
So, for now, I will keep the moniker of Kindle McGuinness and To The Trail will continue until it no longer serves me.
*******
I've also been writing with a few thousand people (tens of thousands actually) from around the world on FaceSpace. One of my mentors, Mr. Mike Dooley, formed a 21 day writing journey that has continued with some spur groups since ... soon i will also be writing with a 21 Angel adventure through the rest of November into December. I desire to get on a different spiritual plain for this coming year to calm the flux down. My testosterone has gotten the best of me with all this idleness and no avenue to express the angst.
What better way than to train for a hike, then hike and journal with my Angels of protection. At least i believe i have Angels that watch over me ... i will find out for sure.
*****
Stay Safe and Be Well.
I will do the same.
Tally Ho for now!

a 21 day writing journey that could lead to vagabonding
I'm on day 5 of a 21 day journey into a new vocation.
I'm testing the waters so to speak.
Since my life flipped on May 13th, (a long story that has yet to complete itself), I await to see how my presence will be tied to this mountainside in Eastern Kentucky. The world is an oyster and a stage.
Once my latest escapades play out, I'm unsure of my purpose thereafter. This is all fine as I've not known what I've wanted to be when I grow up since I was 8 or 9 years old and not much has changed now that I am almost 60. I keep testing and tasting life ... life in return reveals my next steps and I enjoy the magic that unfolds with angelic protection.
So to keep this short, my A.T. hike is on hold.
My body is being ravaged by Shingles at the present moment and I continue to pretend, that my life will never end ... and flowers honestly do not bend in the rainfall ... I've watched. :)
My musings are leading me to pen two to three works that I cannot google. One is filled with mentoring and insight while incorporating the pastime of baseball with the help of the genius of Albert Einstein.
A main baseball point of the work is:
When the game comes to you ... you will be ready.
When the game leaves you ... your life begins and again, you will be ready.
A tool box of nuggets and I will leave at that for now.
4F to Captain: a leaders guide for anyone age 10 or ever was.
Well, back to my chores of tending two cats, two roombas and two lawns from a mountainside home overlooking the Red River Valley.
I am blessed, joyful and thankful. And it is so.

The end of another dream ... what's next?
The end.
That is where most beginning start.
Quick check to see how fast google notifier notifies y'all that I'm closing up this blog.
Seems, this day and age of free theft of data and schitt,
one has to be aware if they have been compromised.
I think I may have been from a while ago ... online trading training.
I believe I'll be moving to Apple or Mozilla and pay for my protection. Free is not what it's cracked up to be especially now that I have the "Ins" on the markets.
Odd how it all crashed this past week.
With a house full of microphones, who's to know who's is turned on and when their phones are in the room when they are not.
So with that, it is time to bid good bye.
Kindle is no more. Starting fires is for someone else to do.
I've even not liked the last few pints of Guinness I've drunk either ... I guess change is the only constant.
A few days of clean up and one email is gone forever.
Soon, I'll have one moniker and it will be mine to control, kindly.
See ya.
Here, there or in the air.
Pete

Twice now in 140 days I've missed a day.
Making it up sucks.
Others will be getting their wishes, I'll have limited technology use on the trail.
With that, I've been instructed to not hike until it can be paid for with trading.
Delays because of cash ... just like hiking.
With the hassles of technology and my anger towards it all.
My blog ends here until I can get "To the Trail"

tattoos .... my body art
Words. Set #23
To those following along … still 71 days or so till I hike … less blogging in 24 days.
(Power) Satisfied
(Force) Salted
Hiking:
In the schitt clearing, I found all the little gadgets and information I have saved for my future A.T. adventure.
Now I get to see what still works and test them against others I have doubles of … lots of little flash lights I see for some reason.
My body art has a story in each scar.
Even the next that are forming on my fingers to remember the day I tried (unsuccessfully) to catch a falling glass in a sink area … the surrounding moments are the memory, not the lost glass.
It took me back to a conversation I had with my grandparents when they both were alive … I was about 5, 6 or 7. Some day I'll realize the day … I was instructed to become an American.
I had questions about being 100% Polish decent.
I wanted to learn the language they all talked while I was around.
It sounded neat … Aunts, Uncles, Bling, Bling, Bling … but no, that was not my instructions.
"Do no let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do."
~ John Wooden
… "As you move forward on the success journey, you need to remember that what happens IN you is more important than what happens TO you.
Unfortunately .... pg 15 "
Unfortunately for me, my old note ended there.
I can only assume that it came from the book or course:
The Success Principles by Jack Canfield.
The Future Depends upon what we do in the Present.
"If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live that life which he and imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours."
~ Henry David Thoreau
Here is the KEY reason:
Other people may be responsible for making you who you are.
They did the best they could with what they had to work with.
YOU are responsible for changing it. ~ Mahatma Gandhi
*****
Self, Others, Future ... all in love. A little each day.... hugs.
When I changed the way I looked at things, the things I looked at changed. Thanks Wayne Dyer.
Flip presumed bad Karma into lessons … "looking for the cookie thief" as Wayne Dyer describes … or the dog that takes packages from porches … or the glass that breaks and cuts a few digits to test ones Moxie.
I'm still peeling the layers of the onion … when chopped: tears
Then to sweetness when cooked I can only hope.

Technology has made some of my past items obsolete so they can be sold, let go or given away to some hiking organization in the area.
Organizing, tossing, donating and stowing …. all for when I return to edit film, audio and process the adventure … write the book or manuscript or flow diagram …. my office is just about ready to receive me back in the future.

I think my Dad was removed from his own family in some way.
During these moments, I noticed that some of the women had number tattoos on their arms … my questions about them were answered … concentration camps …. Nazis … I was pleaded to never adorn a tattoo in remembrance of those that did not have a choice … 59 years later, my only tattoos are scars.
My Dad's only Tattoo, a rose with the word under it - MOM.
Her name was Mary … at least that is the one they gave her at Ellis Island …. a planned visit to find out the day is in my future.
I guess he was rebelling in his own way … I never guessed before, but now I fully understand the conversation with his parents.

It was a lot of paperwork and it was rough getting a USN clearance and I'll never know why.

Moving forward with a rebuilt laptop that is a bit wonky this morning as it finds it's way thru the 5th set of updates … tethered to my iPhone … might bounce box my laptop and this is my testing of equipment for weight and choices too.
Most all my digital archives are now on a 4TB drive about the size of a deck of cards … I have a few hard drives to convert over before I destroy those …. I had sense enough to label them with painters tape for my future self to realize the video and book data stowed in the most advanced manner in my time line of technology.
Now it's streaming everything … unless you have limited bandwidth on the side of a mountain … flash cards you can swallow and drives that hold a schitt ton of stuff … securely … what a world we live in.
I'll test a wireless keyboard and my phone some day soon to really keep the weight down … just in case I want to be less tethered … hiking my hike, for me, the way I desire … not someone else.
As for talking to the phone … I'm being reminded over and over and over again that my battered brain likes to share …. I've been labeled "Chatty Cathy", "Gabby", "Mr. Talks Too Much" and other monikers over my life … sorry if I bore you with my writing then.

So talking to a phone that has to have it's microphone on to observe if you are actually talking to it …. sorry … I've been listened into too many times … that is why I talk story …. A lot to choose to use that might cause confusion … to my advantage just like the ass in chief does but on a smaller scale … I've used it my whole life too.
So, talking to record my novel (short story, cartoon play, manuscript) is not going to happen.

What do you want it to say? ... a joke
Words. Set # 25
(Power) Patient
At this juncture, of when I thought to convert anger into art, Guitar playing came to mind.
22+ years ago, I lost my hands, fingers, arms while playing guitar.
Was it for God or me, that is for the jury to decide ... but I can tell, my heart never wavered.
With the arm snake move recently that Michael F. did in a song while wearing pig tails and a scout suit ... my fingers came back alive.
Now, years past a songs release, my hands and fingers bleeding ... I test on a Yamaha F-335 BL ... a new direction. It sounds nice. :)
The strings will need to be replaced, so the blood stains are no biggie right now ... key is that there was a time and a place where my daughter and I were ... and I asked if I could have it since it was going to be left behind in her move if we could not fit in in the car ... well, it's here and I'm playing it ..... finally, many years later ....
"there's a crack in the gutter where a flower grows ... reminding me that everything is possible .. yeah, reminded me that nothing was impossible ... ya gotta live for the one that you love ya know, you gotta love for the life that you live you know singing: Hey, hey hey .... "
Almost like I never missed a lot of weeks of practice .... with a muscle memory that not always clicks with my brain .... a flow ... barre chords to start, I play thru Hey, Hey, Hey now every morning ... to wake up with a better frame of mind as I now have a desire to finger pick the song Life is Better with You ... this will take weeks of practice AFTER my shard, cut finger tips heal OR scar over. love.
Pain is temporary ... a Phoenix comes from ashes.
In some ways I was not patient to become old.
I can make that happen but the impossible just takes a little time.
There was a time in my career when precision was not an option.
It was a full time requirement.
Transitioning to the civilian unemployment force after 16 years of precision instruments and exact federal requirements and data ...
falling into society sucked.
People are inherently not as motivated as many would desire or like. Levels of motivation.
Navy seal motivation - pain helps.
High School motivation ... should end in high school.
Joke:
Do you know why the desks in 2nd grade are so small?
So that we don't desire to go back there.
Now, years later, I'm an angry pissed off old dude who was an angry pissed off abused toddler, teen, to a top notch sailor after being a complete fuck up and then adult phase hits and my two adorable children ... watching a man melt down as they build up.
Not a great teeter tauter to witness ... our home - the FUN in dysfunctional ... just like everyone else.
Cutting it short due to throbbing hands.
Back to clearing my past before I create my new future.

Two Laws .... Always?
Words. Set #26 counting down.
(Power) Reliant
(Force) Dependent
Things don't "JUST HAPPEN" ... things Happen Just.
Love Requires Sacrifice ... Always.
I've uncovered my past few schitt years of paperwork I buried.
Including the closure of the first corp.
In that time capsule was my notes as I've been going forward in pain ... today was so ironic ... I've had no feelings in my hands and arms for 22 years .... then it came back a few years back and has been on and off with the joint still finding it's way in my sleep ...
Well, a few days back, I was just trying some arm/shoulder moves and my neck POPPED! .... feelings back lately ... and today ... for sure as it would happen to be the day I lacerated 4 of my fingers trying to catch a glass in the sink the moment it shattered ... hand went thru the cut glass.
Not my first rodeo ... but it was on the first task of the day.
I don't plan accidents ... they happen ... I'm on a task time line ...
Next ... bandaids, electrical tape and kept at it .. task number infinity ...
Then the internet goes down ... well, gives me a chance to think.
So I'll keep this one short.
I think I might have some shard of glass still in a few digits and will soak and then tooth brush scrub to make sure they heal clean. .... a long day and the tips of a few others got nicked ... just happens sometimes.

Life, like hiking will have it's ups and downs.
Today, it had a few boo boo's thrown in ... kinda like hiking.
So, I fall back again on my friends advice ... take the pain and make art ... I've drawn things in blood before but that was an Indian thing.
So, now that I've been battle tested by life, I have to think about my future ... all the way past the diaper stage I understand to be coming ... and I began reading a few books I had from that era of my existence on this spinning orb we all call Earth ...
opps. 4 keys need cleaning ... I've now seen it all as a technician ... typing till the fingers bleed .... I like my new career.
It calms me to write and trade ... and soon wonder while wandering .... also, the 3d print farm calls ... time to set up another round ...
Mountain side like.
Goal:
Build a financial robot for hiking is what has been crossing my mind lately. Now that the built in Moving average Expert tried to work today .... drat that internet!!!
That's like cursing gravity or muscle reaction in a sink area ...
can't do it. Internet is internet.
The book?
Being right or making money,
revised edition 2000 Ned Davis Research
I was told as I was purchasing it that it was a personal gift from a friend of his to personal friends of his and the dude was dead ...
So I shared that some of his friends must have died too cuz their familys are selling the book on ebay and amazon with only a few copies out there still .... class got halted for a moment.
I'll share a learning story soon.
Moving forward,

Jus cuz ... repetitive motion
Words. Set #27
(Power) Leading
I desire nothing but the best for my friend but alas, I believe the DNA of the family genes will get to them first .... Alzheimer's.
There seems to be a running theme in their tribe.
There will come a day when I am unknown ... not sure I'm ready for that day yet ... I know I'll cry ... sucks having a good memory.
Jus Cuz someone (like a friend) might be right in how many times they have told another "something" of "their Perceived" importance .... but the individual that everyone is trying to correct can only be corrected by it's source.
The others are actually wasting time they could be working on themselves but ... Hey, Hey, Hey ... no matter how life is today ... I have to hike my own hike and not give a rats ass what others think about me. 100 crunches and 60 modified push ups to go before coffee ... Doing my own.
I can never do what any one can desire for me to do ... I'm not Pinocchio ... lol ... I cut my strings a LONG time ago.
I truly do have potential ... and now I have kinetic.
It feels good to dance again!
Hurts but feels good in a different way.
With that, I'll leave today to process itself.
I have begun to close off to some of those I love ... trust and lost trust ... it was inevitable.
And the others read the thoughts here until they are not ... thoughts or here.

This is what I find odd:
A friend ... can trust you for your intellect up to a point.
then ... who knows what happens.
Just like LOVE has a habit of leaving overnight.
The intelligence that I'm praised to have stops at my research of Time, Space, GOD, Atoms & Adams & Addams, Quarks and the Universe.

Gary Bebington writes in his book: Trading for Love
This Concept: Impression of Increase.
"... that the desire for increase is inherent in all nature.
It is the fundamental impulse of the universe.
All human activities are based on the desire for increase.
People are always seeking more food, more clothes, better shelter, more luxury, more knowledge, more pleasure -
more life.
Every living thing is under the necessity for continuous advancement.
Where increase of life ceases, dissolution and death set in at once.
People instinctively know this, and hence they are forever seeking more."

Going forward: I'm being encouraged to do the following -
Convey the "Impression of Increase" to every
man, woman and child with whom I
come in contact and that no matter
how small the transaction,
come in contact and that no matter
how small the transaction,
(or meeting),
put into "IT"
the thought of increase
and make sure that
the customer
(or stranger)
is impressed with
the thought.
Take pride in this and you will never have a lack of customers
(or friends) .

Fly by night ... Red Tail Hawk
Words. Set # 28 (@68 days plus some added before I take off)
(Power) Spiritual
Gahdi stated: in heaven there is no religion
I was 14.
Snowy Owl I asked for (from a friends album cover) flew to me one day as I was riding to scouts ... it was beauty I witnessed.
I'm not sure of the day but I do remember it swooping down to land on top of a telephone pole ... looked just like the Rush Album Cover .... that is why I purchased that album.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fly_by_Night_(album)
***
The snowy owl is the symbol of endurance. It represents big dreams along with the ability to achieve them.
It is the sign of new beginnings and moving forward with all might.
Other than that, it tells us about psychic ability, illumination, support, inner knowing, sacrifice, family, clarity, and legacy.

https://www.spiritanimal.info/owl-spirit-animal/
As for my Red Tailed Hawk ... I shared that Birthday Story back when I could barely walk and needed a wildlife sighting ... back then the Red Tailed Hawk .... Failed getting the squirrel ... Today, it circled above my family as 3 were leaving for one to travel by plane ... I was clearing my Schitt still ... I can see the floor and hopefully will have it all done tomorrow, wall included.
https://www.spiritanimal.info/hawk-spirit-animal/
Seneca Tribal Elder ... friend of mine ... noticed I get along with nature very well.
Having all three look me in the eyes, Snowy Owl, Eagle and Red Tail Hawk ... the Hawk is my Favorite and came to me on my Birthday ... that sealed the deal for me.
Don't get me wrong, the eagle was cool and was viewed while Penny and I were leaving NYS where the Thruway cuts across tribal land ... that made that sighting special .... it sealed a decision for us to move back to NYS for her Mother when the time was due.
Atoms are smaller than DNA oddly enough.
We all are atoms ... not adams. :(
I'll begin to play with what I know can be played with.
Work with what I understand.
Harmonic Balance with the World ... I have to start there.
Small steps but with better tools now since Valentines Day 2020.
My heart opened up a bit ... thanks World Collective and Mike F.
Your songs help.

As for hiking... I'm really stoked to be going to Springer in a few weeks to see the send off of the "Bubble".
I'll pick up the traditional rock to carry to Maine and I'll also be able to carry one from Maine back to Georgia.
I'm going to go above and beyond and do a swap at the highest and lowest points too just for giggles.
Moving forward

Peter and the Wolf ..... or Wolves of Wall Street
Words. Set # 30
(Power) Peaceful
(Force) Belligerent
The departments in shambles that have had now a few years of unmanaged care ... because of a Force that is very ignorant ...
Ripe for Exploitation. Just like the fat one wanted.
Well, this guy noticed.
Thanks Don for opening the doors to the vaults that will take a few years to close all the loopholes.
I appreciate it. I realize he will never see it but ...
That is one word I've never looked up before ... belligerent.
I've been called it many times so I thought I would see my name as the definition today ... I was mistaken ... it's not me.
I'm going to say that belligerent is physical and yes I can be if needed. The rest is show ... be larger than the bear in volume.
Hiking and woods safety ... I just used it in people spaces too much.
If Pavlov's dogs are in us ... I think fight or flight is in us ... and bear scat too ... lol.

Getting the anxiousness of the trip in my whole being.
After yesterday's full events .... I can toss everything that does not need to find me when I get off the trail ... research material I've uncovered.
I've also closed a door to "The Trek". It was a great offer just I'm not the right person for that kind of thing right now.

Haphazardly, I placed books, tapes of all sorts, DVD's, CD's and notes on book shelves to gaze at ... see what jumps out .... and lo an behold - I picture emerged.
Like a moment I took with Professor Bays in Radford VA.
His work was being displayed in the Library.
His work is odd and its for healing.
His work is his expression of his pain.
Here's a link to a quick back story
Richard explained to me that although his head was not on correct always, he still has to pay the bills like everyone else.
His story paid his life ... one picture at a time.
Love Yourself

Now I'm starting to get into the Woo Woo of life since nothing else of government structure resembles sanity.
So if it looks all like a nightmare, then I might as well dream sweet dreams for myself using their "NEW" rules.

I'm going to allow the Wolves and Sharks to add to my account, all that they freely give and as often as they give ... cyclic in practice ... like clockwork .... turtle like.
Spoiler: the turtle wins the race.

I knew a guy named R.Wayne Smith.
Since he did not like Bob .... and I could not blame him ... he was R.Wayne.
From that, I learned I could be called anything that I desired as an adult "IF" I wanted.
