The pain is not abating or abiding my wishes as I spent yesterday after waking trying to hit the trigger points hard. It took hours for it to finally fade some. More mixing cups came of the printer.

Slowly working on digging more garlic I got about half the Siberian harvested then saw a bunch of scapes that had grown out long.

@stryeyz and I went for a drive mid day up to 3 rocks where the winds and thermals were quite strong. I was wishing to have had my wing with but it was too strong as the birds were showing serious climbs super fast.

The sweat bees were out and were super chill as they tongued my skin. I have always loved sweat bees for the mellow nature they have.

On our way down the hill we found some nice handfuls of Thimble berries amongst the various patches in the draws. Next couple weeks will likely have many more ripening.

After searching Elk and Deer Park for a place open we ended up at Hop Mountain for dinner and brought food home for the boys.

Our fly catcher's chicks are nearing fledging with feathers growing and voracious appetites judging by the parents non stop flights in with food.

Our raspberry plants have oodles ripe and need to be picked daily to not lose them to birds or over ripening. We listened to the fireworks in the region as we went to bed.

Theracane again this morning trying to slow the pain. Going for a ride soon anyway in spite of the pain as I have work tomorrow and Tuesday. @stryeyz will go for a swim mid day, more garlic harvesting, and prepping tools and supplies for work.
