I got so caught up in some other things last night that I forgot to do my daily post. Anyways, I started my day off as normal, got up, had to wake the dogs up; the time change to Daylight Savings Time is very confusing to them, and did treats and outs. Res really does not like the new pumpkin treats that Jesse made for them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And after finishing a recording for our new technician on-boarding processes it was time to head to the train and then the airport. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"16830\" src=\"https:\/\/cmolnar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/20260309_103848-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16830\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cmolnar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/20260309_103848-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cmolnar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/20260309_103848-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/cmolnar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/20260309_103848-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/cmolnar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/20260309_103848-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cmolnar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/20260309_103848-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"16829\" src=\"https:\/\/cmolnar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/20260309_105323-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16829\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cmolnar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/20260309_105323-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cmolnar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/20260309_105323-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cmolnar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/20260309_105323-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cmolnar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/20260309_105323-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cmolnar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/20260309_105323-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"16842\" src=\"https:\/\/cmolnar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/20260309_102303-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16842\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cmolnar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/20260309_102303-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cmolnar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/20260309_102303-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/cmolnar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/20260309_102303-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/cmolnar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/20260309_102303-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cmolnar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/20260309_102303-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Everything at the airport worked as planned and I had my bag dropped, was through security, and in the gate areas within 30 minutes after Jesse dropped me off.

Wish I had more to add to it today, but really don&#8217;t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jesse sent me the cutest photograph of Climber doing what she does most of the time, chewing on a rope toy. I have to stop and buy her another one to take home with me for her.

I need to get back in the pool to get ready for the Mountain Swim Series in June. I am doing dry-land workouts until that shoulder stops hurting, which is good for me, but still not swimming. Today, I am thankful for the flight crews and the airport folks that make 3 1\/2 hours in a metal tube in the sky a good experience, I am also thankful for the TSA agents who are working without pay, keeping a good attitude and getting us through security, and I am thankful to have Jesse and the pack to get home to when I am done with my travels. And, I was a good person today and maintained my positive attitude and didn&#8217;t complain about a thing all day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Anyways, tomorrow is another day &#8211; well today, since this was from yesterday, and we will see what type of trouble I am going to get into next. I will see you all later today (March 10th) with the next update on my world.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"gmw-single-location-wrapper-440\" class=\"gmw-element-wrapper gmw-single-location-wrapper gmw-sl-wrapper gmw-sl-single-post-wrapper post \" object_type=\"post\" object_id=\"16839\"  style=\"width:100%\"><div class='gmw-sl-title-wrapper'><h3 class=\"gmw-sl-title post-title gmw-sl-element\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cmolnar.com\/?p=16839\" title=\"Day 068 of 2026 &#8211; March 9th\">Day 068 of 2026 &#8211; March 9th<\/a><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"gmw-sl-address gmw-sl-element\"><i class=\"gmw-location-icon gmw-icon-location\"><\/i><span class=\"address\"><a href=\"https:\/\/maps.google.com\/?q=27891 Crown Lake Blvd, Bonita Springs, FL 34135, USA\" target=\"_blank\">27891 Crown Lake Blvd, Bonita Springs, FL 34135, USA<\/a><\/span><\/div><div class=\"gmw-sl-map-wrapper gmw-sl-element\"><div id=\"gmw-map-wrapper-440\" class=\"gmw-map-wrapper  sl single_location \" style=\"width:100%;height:300px;\"> <span id=\"gmw-resize-map-toggle-440\" class=\"gmw-resize-map-toggle gmw-icon-resize-full\" style=\"display:none;\" title=\"Resize map\"><\/span> <div id=\"gmw-map-loader-440\" class=\"gmw-map-loader\"><\/div> <div id=\"gmw-map-440\" class=\"gmw-map sl single_location\" style=\"width:100%; height:100%\" data-map_id=\"440\" data-prefix=\"sl\" data-map_type=\"single_location\" data-icons_usage=\"global\"><\/div> <\/div><\/div><div id=\"gmw-sl-directions-link-wrapper-440\" class=\"gmw-sl-directions-link-wrapper gmw-sl-element gmw-sl-post-direction-link-wrapper\"><div class=\"trigger-wrapper\"><i class=\"gmw-icon-directions-solid\"><\/i><a href=\"#\" id=\"form-trigger-440\" class=\"form-trigger\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault();jQuery(this).closest( '.gmw-sl-element' ).find( '.directions-link-form-wrapper' ).slideToggle();\">Get directions<\/a><\/div><div id=\"directions-link-form-wrapper-440\" class=\"directions-link-form-wrapper\" style=\"display:none;\"><form action=\"https:\/\/maps.google.com\/maps\" method=\"get\" target=\"_blank\"><div class=\"address-field-wrapper\"><label for=\"origin-440\">From: <\/label><input type=\"text\" size=\"35\" id=\"origin-440\" class=\"origin-field\" name=\"saddr\" value=\"\" placeholder=\"Your location\" \/><a href=\"#\" class=\"get-directions-link-submit gmw-icon-search\" onclick=\"jQuery( this ).closest( 'form' ).submit();\"><\/a><\/div><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"daddr\" value=\"27891 Crown Lake Blvd, Bonita Springs, FL 34135, USA\" \/><\/form><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today is a travel day, or should I say &#8220;was&#8221; a travel day since I am posting this a little late.
