In the morning drive to Kenosha. I like to call it Kenowhere. Go to the courthouse for a hearing. Drive home. Go for a couple of walks down at the lakefront. Very relaxed. Gorgeous summer evening.
East side of the courthouse
In the morning drive to the courthouse. Do a Zoom hearing over my cell phone from a table along the east side of the courthouse. Walk over to the Safety Building for a real hearing in a real courtroom. Walk to the Criminal Justice Facility for a preliminary hearing. In the afternoon walk to the office to work all afternoon. Go to Orange Theory. Walk along the lakefront while listening to audio of the events from the 1960 Presidential campaign.
Take over the walking path
In the morning sit on the couch and go to court over my cell phone. In the afternoon walk to the lakefront. Put cracked corn out for the geese. They take over the walking path. Walk to the office. Work all afternoon. Walk to the post office to drop of some mail. Walk home. Looks like rain outside. Decide to take a rest day.
Take it easy at Orangetheory
In the morning go to the office. Work on a few things. In the afternoon drive to the House of Correction. Go in for a couple of consultations. Drive home. Take a short nap. Go to Orangetheory. My legs and quads are still wrecked from all the biking I did over the weekend. Take it easy at Orangetheory. Go to bed early.
Ride out to Heather’s house
Wake up still tired from the night before. Didn’t sleep well at all. Go back to bed. Wake up a little more refreshed. In the afternoon ride my bike west on the Hank Aaron trail. Ride west on the New Berlin trail. Ride through Waukesha. Ride onto the Glacial Drumlin trail. Ride out to Heather’s house. Eat grilled steak. Ride back home as the sunset glows behind me. Gorgeous evening.
Ride further west
In the morning go to Orangetheory. Later walk to the lakefront. Put out cracked corn for the geese. Walk to the lagoon. Put down seed for the ducks and other little birds and squirrels. In the afternoon ride my bike west on the Hank Aaron trail. Ride further west down the New Berlin trail. Ride to the end of the trail in Waukesha. At night drive to Pick N’Save. Get groceries. The checkout girl with purple hair is there again. She looks like she is in a bad mood though.
Gather around
In the morning go to the courthouse for a sentencing hearing. In the afternoon walk to the lakefront. Find the geese. Throw down piles of cracked corn. They gather around. Later ride my bike to the entrance of the New Berlin trail. Ride back down Greenfield Avenue. Get tacos from a truck. Go to the Forest Home Cemetery. Sit on a bench and eat tacos while looking at gravestones.
The fountain next to the art museum
In the morning sleep in a litte late. Do a court hearing on the couch while using my cell phone. In the afternoon walk to the jail. Go in for a consultation. Walk back to my office. Do some work there. The air conditioner is not back on yet. Rough. At night walk along the river walk out to Gordon Park. Walk east to Lake Park. Walk down to the lakefront. Stop at Moosa’s to get an ice cream cone. Find some geese on the way home and give them a bag of cracked corn to eat. Walk to the fountain next to the art museum. Take a picture. Very nice summer evening.
Soaking wet
In the morning go to the jail. Go in for a couple of consultations. Go to the Criminal Justice Facility for some preliminary hearings. All the other defense lawyers are appearing my Zoom. I am going to the court to be there in person, like a soldier. In the afternoon go to the office. Later go to Orangetheory. A massive sudden pounding rainstorm hits the city while I am running on the treadmill. I run home after the workout is over as it rains. I am only outside for a couple of minutes and I am absolutely soaking wet. Dry off and lay on the couch to watch the series finale of “The Man in the High Castle”. Today was Kristine’s birthday. My mind kept me thinking about Kristine. It brought me down a little.
