Note to readers: Day 7 posts seem to be having issues. A few days ago when I thought I was discarding some changes, the whole post was deleted. Then this morning when I tried to publish some recreated parts of the post with an explanation of the earlier deletion, it too seems to have disappeared.

I will get back to day 7 at some point. It was an important day with some watershed moments. But now I’m just trying to keep marginally behind. So enough of day 7 for now. Except – I had a great music offering for day 7 that perfectly fit my mood (thanks Bill Rohde) – Bob Dylan’s Pressing On. This was also fitting as on day 7 we were as close as the Mississippi gets to Bob’s hometown of Hibbing, MN.
