My same age cousin, Redwood, sent me this yesterday. He was apologizing for losing my number because something happened to his phone. He had to get a new one and he wasn’t on iCloud or whatever, so he had no backup for his contacts.
Before Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath, i was an Osmond Brothers and Jackson 5 fan.
Thank you, Redwood, for those first two Rock and Roll albums you gave me at Christmas in 1972.
Led Zeppelin IV and Black Sabbath Paranoid exposed me to my favorite music genre.

8-second video: Wrote last year about this exact experience and what it taught me about Grizzly Bear and human interaction. To witness it laid the foundation for a once-in-a-lifetime experience a few days later.
One of the first times intentionally using a specific date – to help remember the “anniversary” date – was April 15, 2000.
Tax Day 2000.
There’s a penalty if you don’t do the work by April 15.
There’s a penalty if you don’t do the work to get and stay healthy.
In 1999, was disgusted (devastated?) at how far apart my intentions to live a healthy life were compared to my actual behaviors to live a healthy life.
Rationalized it took me years to get so slothful that i could reverse engineer a slow and steady comeback. Not in one or two years, but over the course of five-10 years.
Thus began running from our mailbox to our next neighbor’s mailbox. Once a day for a week. Second week, two mailboxes a day for a week. Third week, three mailboxes a day. Etc.
Tax Day and one-mailbox-a-day.
It worked.
