May 3 walk with the guys

 Vince and I get out for a walk.

About 10.1 km by 3pm!  Hopefully another 5 km by end of day.


We go off leash for a bit ☺️, took the dog out to the field, there were two other dogs out off leash. They had the same idea we had, and we kept an eye on them.  At one point putting Dixie back in leash for 2 minutes just so she wouldn't run off.

We went to the park afterwards 🙂 and enjoyed a walk around the pond.  Looked at geese, check if we could see any goslings.  None yet. Were hoping some would have hatched by now.

We get walking distance, maybe 3.5 km today. It is a got one today.

I think I'm going to go dig up the garden. Plant some dirt foam cups. See what comes up.

It's a dry season already, the trees are budding in some spots. Even some leaves are out on some trees 🌲.

Dixie is laying down by the vent register hoping the air conditioning comes on.

Happy I got to go for such a long walk.

Out walking again


I get out and start walking again. Two long walks.  I have about 12k steps by 3 PM. About 10.1 km done today.

I'm hoping to get one more walk in by end of day.  Dixie is done, she is laying in a dark spot by the air conditioning vent.  She is tuckered out.

I get back and sit out front.  I get a glass of ice water and sit out. I guess my dad got a phone call from a older friend he did  the Spanish Camino.  So end of walk he was on the phone. Just as well, I was getting hot 🔥.  Dixie wanted to get home for water. 

Where's the goose?

  I finally said to myself that the goose is not coming back to its nest. And walked up to take a photo of the fluff that went down after it disappeared.  I couldn't see anything else like eggs but when we first notice the bird 🐦 missing we thought it did leave it's eggs.

Not a very good hiding place.  They should if fence it off with that snow ❄️ fencing so nothing got to it.  Out some city workers taking care of these mother goose...



By 3:30 and this even when it cools down I'm  hoping for a third walk.  Got my steps in now. Even my body battery 🔋 yesterday is doing better after getting so many steps in today. So I feel good about that a good boost never went to waste.


I went grocery shopping at Safeway, for first Tuesday of the month.  At about 7:30 in the morning, and filled up on gas.  A change in got high octane this time, I hear doing that once in awhile will clean it all up.  Make it better with out a knocking.

Plus 4 Celsius 6.1 km in a hour 🏃‍♂️

  Dixie and I go for a run  🏃‍♂️ Dixie and I go for a run, redo a hill run down and up again. Kim picks me up after I climb the hill, I called her and asked since I was over my hour mark, originally I wanted to do 9 km in an hour but I managed to do six km instead.  I think it was the hill climb that did it.  I ran fully down hill no problem 😌 We made good time.  For a hill run 🏃‍♂️   It looks like it will be 13 Celsius by noon but it feels warmer in the sun. ☀️  I took a picture by the usual spot that judge where the river is from other years and with that rain the last couple days it definitely looks a lot better than what it was a few weeks ago Dixie went off leash for a bit and went to the river. Must’ve been cold. I think for April water dip. I managed to bring my VO2 max up to good 😊 today, it’s the first time I’ve put it in the green since owning my second Garmin. So my goal right now is to get an endurance score over 5099 To move past ...

Walk mid October with my Mom

By
  Walks with my mom The water looks like glass just crystal smooth.  My mom and I are walking to the river and in life. It’s like we’re always walking away.  Getting closer to the end, my poet mind says.   I say I got to enjoy these walks and I was silent most the walk just trying to enjoy 😊 my time with her. Or walk end more so with 🐾 paw printed pants 👖 from dogs jumping.  We say maybe a dozen dogs 🐕. A wonderful time.  I often thought it was too early to spell like alcohol.  But surprised to pass another walker, but each to their own I probably smell like an ashtray. Although I never smoked or chewed tobacco on my walk.  I just want to walk with my mom.  Often times I don’t think I could spit out everything I wanted to say so much so that I just said in these moments you don’t have to chew tobacco and say anything. Dixie and both us individually by the fallen tree arch. A path going to the river, under which most the trees 🌳 there are...

Walk and a run in to the vet

By
 Another adventure for Dixie,  she is an expensive dog….🐕 We enjoy 😊 our walks. Up top of the coulee you can see the university  Sonny and I go walking the south side dog park,  it tricky terrain for sure.  It’s nice 😊 for the scenery I think, yet a bit treacherous at times.  A person has to be careful let alone a dog 🐕 being careful. Here is Sonny and I smiling giving a thumbs up to the camera 📸  The walk was decent though some difficult 😞 parts for today, Dixie is on a 14 day hiatus from walking.  She’ll probably want to go sooner rather than later. I think we’re stuck to just five minute poop 💩 walks than the hour or two hour walks we usually do. I’m unsure when it happen but my guess is near the end of the walk when I noticed it. Dixie gets to close to the bushes today, I kept looking her over but noticed a different spot on her at the end of our walk.   Dixie goes through some bushes and gouged a piece out of her. Now Dixie has th...
