A movie in a theater

Another beautiful day ended with a movie, Together Together, in the Latches Theater in downtown Brattleboro, VT. It seemed like a pretty ideal circumstance to see a movie – in a small. old theater in a small town in a highly vaccinated state on a Monday night. There were 4 of us in the theater so our guess was correct. It was an enjoyable movie with a interesting story. There was a recorded Zoom with writer/director and main actors after the movie which added some interesting context. There is nothing about this movie that made it better on the big screen versus streaming but it was another step towards normalcy.

We cycled in New Hampshire today around Spofford Lake – having a lunch lakeside. Part of the route was pretty hilly and I am practiced slow deep breathing going up hills. I think it helps and with time I may be able to get over the anxiety I feel as I hit steep sections and start to run out of air. Going to a higher gear and peddling faster only seems to exacerbate my shortness of breath. Temperature was in low 70s – perfect. There was a whole geese family swimming on the lake – 2 adults and at least 5 goslings. Very cute.

Tomorrow is my last full day here. Weather is supposed to be beautiful again and it may be a day for kayaking and paddle boarding.
