NW Branch

 I went up the hard side (lots of ups and downs on a narrow trail) and had Bixby and a new camera, so very slow. I haven’t figured out how to get the pictures out of the camera yet. 

I haven’t been taking walks; but I’ve been very active. Sailing and gardening, on my feet much of the day. 

Wednesday Between Errands

 Rainy day today, Thursday, but I didn’t get around to posting yesterday’s walk. It was a busy day but my route and timing allowed a stop on a stretch of the creek I don’t get to that often  

Rock Creek

 Felt a little off today, so just a stroll with the dog in the beautiful weather 

Flat and Easy

 What a difference to my pace it made to be on a flat and paved surface. Even dragging Bixby along. 

Autumn Perfection

 A glittery day when I was glad to be in the shade of the woods. A woodland trail is definitely tougher than a paved path. Shoes were good, but still glad to take them off when I got home. Knees still holding up  

New Shoes!

 Cautious trip to check out the new hiking shoes. All is well. 

Yay 

Many Blustery Days

 Wednesday, after working out and then tap class- I bought new hiking boots. Thursday I spent hours up at the boat, prepping for a long duration wind event. (Days of 20+ knot winds can be as damaging as a few hours of stronger ones). For a long weekend I hunkered down inside, wrapped in blankets and books and hot food. 

Today I finally ventured out for a couple of miles along the creek. New boots ok so far. Forgot trackers.
