First Big Bonnaroo Walkabout

Walked 6 miles on a roundtrip walk today. My car is kaput but a Buddhist Monk was in town from Tibet Speaking at the Community College. I have an interest in Tummo Meditation(where you can control your heartbeat and body temprature) wich some of the Monks practice. Went and listened to his seminar all around the trip with the lecture included for an hour was about 5 hours. This was crossing some non friendly pedestrian areas didging traffic and at some points walking off road and at one point walking in a ditch. Weather was about 75 degrees and humidity was about 40% and I actually got sweaty hot. Spring and Summer are getting here quick in the south. I wish first off I had not worn jeans for the walk, also that I had put on a white t-shirt, instead in honor of expanding my mind I threw on a high dollar 2005 Offical Bonnaroo shirt (the blue one if you got one hanging in the closet or on yer' back) and wore a pair of trail runners. Everything is sticky right now and I am much craving a shower. Figured I would share this with you in case you are new to Bonnaroo and are one of the Canadians or far Northener I run into every year. Scored a prayer flag for my troubles. The monk was real cool and listened intently to my questions about controlling body temprature etc. He told to keep on doing what I was doing and to eventually pass it along to others. I learned a bit about Tibet and their exile in India. And generally had a fine day. My legs will thank me for this walk when Bonnaroo hits they are tuned up good now. And with my car being messed up I will keep working on them like one of those dudes that beats a kettle drum in a oar powered slave ship. I will pound the drum till they fall off or, Bonnaroo gets here. And thats it for my getting in shape thread for the day. Just pick a goal and walk to it do it hard and then slack off on later walks. Everything will be fine by Farm time!
