On this persistently foggy day, I:

Rose hips, Beech Hill Preserve, Rockport, Maine, 02 September 2014.

Rose hips.

• Drove off to begin a new job.
• Worked some.
• Left work to take my pickup to the shop.
• Rode my bicycle back to work in the fog.
• Worked some more.
• Rode my bicycle back to the shop and picked up my truck.
• Stopped off for Jack and returned to the office for my laptop.
• Hiked Beech Hill with Jack.
• Returned home and worked a little more.
• Watched a little Dr. Who.

It was a foggy day, it was a good day. It was a day that progressed, moved forward, full of new situations, strong leg muscles, a fixed truck, a happy dog, a tired man ready for bed.
