Feb 17, 2022:

Last night rained and this morning woke up to a much colder and cloudy 
day. Today is in 30s F. And it is windy too; very cold wind indeed.

Yesterday I was tired and on top of that my intestines had not waken up 
by the time it was walking time, so didn't want to risk it and decided 
against walking. Actually it wouldn't be a risk cause I'm certain that 
about 15 minutes into walking my bowels would wake up and would get 
active with vengeance and caused me the scenario that I had experienced 
two times this far.

My experience of that was that as I said, in both times, about 15 
minutes into the walk bowel started to move giving me only seconds to do 
something about it. Both times I began walking directly to the nearest 
creek to hide myself enough for a poop. After wading through some thin 
but very tough thorny invasive climbing vine I reached the edge of the 
creek which was like a cliff. At this point I was still exposed to any 
onlookers on the track. So I farther climbed down the cliff using 
exposed roots of the trees sticking out of the soil and reached a small 
area that was not as steep as other parts of that cliff, and finished my 
business there, used my wet wipes and bottle of water to clean up, and 
climbed back up using same exposed roots, and waded for a second time 
through the thorny vines to reach the track. Both times I emerged 
bloodied in several exposed areas of my hands and feet. The first time 
it happened I aborted the walk. The second time I continued and finished 
the walk.

I am 95% sure if I had gone for walking yesterday this would happen 
again. But this morning I had a normal bowel movement and got my walking 
done.

By the time walking began all wetness of last night had dried out by 
cold wind. I chose to wear my military overall under my jeans, and my 
polar jacket that is also used in military in northern Europe. The 
"overall" covers my legs, hips and stomach but not the ribs and above. 
And it is not an overall to begin with cause it goes under anything else 
directly on the body. It is made from a special material like satin 
stuffed with a very light but heat-resistant material to make it 
comfortable to slide over skin and also keep the body warm. It is so 
light one totally forgets about it. Wool is as effective, but heavy. 
You'd feel its presence all the time.

The polar jacket is quite warm but is not wind-proof, but the wind was 
not that strong today. It blocked about 80% of the wind. My long-sleeve 
shirt under it blocked about 15% and the t-shirt underwear blocked the 
rest. So the walk was very comfortable indeed.

The jacket has a high collar that zips into a cylinder reaching above my 
nose up to just under my eyes, so scarf and ear protection is not 
necessary to be added.

If the wind was very strong, or if it was raining as well, then I would 
add my Gore-tex jacket on top of this one. I got my gore-tex from 
internet. It is a jacket worn by French Foreign Legion. Material, looks, 
and quality is like the American camouflage Gore-tex military jackets 
but price of it is about one third of price of the American ones. Like 
guns, in USA these jackets are desired by many who pay any price for 
them, so price has hiked up to ridiculous levels. Even after paying 
airmail shipping for my order from Europe, I ended up paying one third 
of the price compared to what I can buy from a military surplus store 
here in Texas.

With that gore-tex and the polar jacket and that special overall, I can 
walk through any weather condition at any temperature. Last year during 
the notorious winter storm that froze the entire fucking Texas I walked 
every day using the same combination of clothing, and each and every 
time the walk was perfectly comfortable. Gore-tex is a breathe through 
material that at the same time blocks water and cold! It is just 
wonderful for very nasty weather conditions.

Saw no anhingas, and only three people during the entire walk. The 
Chink, an older lady walking by herself, and a Hispanic young guy 
walking his dog. There were no other people on the track or in the parks 
or around ponds, etc. There were no bugs out either :)
