6:10pm, W Lafayette Avenue and Eutaw Place, Baltimore, MD

Another excellent bike ride battling hills against the wind. Rode at least 8 miles today. This site was the first familiar space on my way home. WHIMSICAL is the prompt for today. I have a whimsical spirit but my body feels heavy and clunky. It's where I am today. Gotta move to find that groove. The wind is out in full force but so is the sun. Sometimes I think about how being outside at the beginning of this project was challenging because it was cold a lot of the time. The seasons have changed and so has the world. These dances are so much more than love letters these days. They are proof of life, encouragement and inspiration to others. They ground me in my physical form when feelings and thoughts swirl about wildly. I wanted to start this project several times before but Daily Dances are essential for 2020. Whimsy is in the eye of the beholder. I let loose and played, got my jeans dirty, was awkward and kept going. I am whimsical because I dance everyday. Day one hundred one.
