Hope you were blessed to be surrounded by family and friends today and you took the time to make some special memories.
I got my 900 miles in and now with 39 days left in 2017 – what shall be my new year-end goal?
Seeing those ducks and geese enjoying this cold weather made me vow to wear my goose down coat for tomorrow’s walk.
“Of all the paths you take in life, make sure a few of them are dirt.” - John Muir
It’s never too late to set another goal as we still have six weeks left in 2017 ...
The weather outside is frightful … a few Sundays ago we were walking around in short sleeves.
The frost is on the pumpkin, oh Fall where did you go?
That sun sure was glorious – now if only those warm temps would hurry back ...
No ark needed today and pretty soon the frost will be on the pumpkin ...
Those furry critters are getting roly-poly thanks to my sharing the love ... and peanuts.
I sure wish I could be waterproofed like the ducks are.
Make no bones about it - the weather is a little frightful, just like the holiday.
A leisurely Sunday stroll gave me time to take in the sights of life at the Creek.
Tomorrow’s anticipated rain and blustery weather will shake down more of those colorful leaves, leaving trees shivering and bare.
The sun put in a welcome appearance and created some fun shadows at the Park this morning.
I hope you savored this weekend as our temps will be in a downward spiral soon.
Today was a gorgeous day, with the promise of an equally beautiful Fall day again for tomorrow.
A walk in the park was the balm that re-energized me and repaired my frazzled nerves from these last few frenzied days.
If only there was a magic potion to combat the rest of life’s problems just as easily ....
The wind made me feel as if I had wings on my feet as I traveled the perimeter path this morning.
Deer are coming out of the woodwork, not the woods, and it is scary and sad.
Were you careful today not to step on any sidewalk cracks, walk under any ladders or let a black cat cross your path?
Today I reached this year’s walking goal - how many more miles can I walk in the remaining 83 days of 2017?
After that trip to the Harvest Festival, perhaps now I’m convinced that Fall is finally hovering out there within reach after all.
After yesterday’s sogfest, it was just nice to get out for a walk and enjoy the day.
These roller-coaster temps remind me of the story of "Goldilocks and The Three Bears" and the three bowls of porridge she sampled.
“I cannot endure to waste anything so precious as autumnal sunshine by staying in the house." ~Nathaniel Hawthorne
It was momentary mayhem ... then finally the Park returned to the peaceful place it usually is.
The Autumn allure is just beginning and there is a beautiful weekend promised for us as well.
These hot-weather days, I’ve lost a spring in my step ... it is more like a slow trudge.
Hay, er … hey, I’m really marking miles toward my ultimate walking goal!
It’s an imperfect world for humans, and critters, and apparently that is true for trees as well.
Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadows. It’s what the sunflowers do – Helen Keller
Another misty morn on a mid-week day that feels like mid-Summer.
Souvenirs and mementos – gone now, but engrained forever in my soul.
A walk in the Park and a mutual enjoyment of Mother Nature’s offerings were ours for the taking on this beautiful September morn.
Check out the wingspan on this beautiful hawk who was circling around the Park!
With less than 100 miles to meet my 2017 goal, it’s onward and upward, with soaring stats like that plane headed into the wild blue yonder.
A word to the wise: sometimes it’s better to just hunker down in the house and stay put.
Life is fragile. We’re not guaranteed a tomorrow, so give it everything you’ve got. – Tim Cook, CEO of Apple
