 Toby and I go to scenic dog park 


I buy us ice coffee for the walk, I got Dixie water but couldn’t find her water dish. So she drank out of the bottle. I think she likes it that way.

I talk us into another walk to find my Tilley Hat 🧢 I dropped on our walk. 

Actually Toby was asking if we should do a second on I was undecided til I lost my hat 🧢, that decided it for me.

I was wishing the hat a good home 🏡 if some one where to

Find it, but a good person put it lost and found.


Toby looking out over scenic looking how beautiful 🤩 the coulee looks. You can spot the university on top of the other side of the coulee.

An amazing building.

One day I might go there, it be nice 😊 if I could one day.



We get walk our second lap to see where I dropped this hat to see if we could spot it again.




Dixie is 26 on the local leaderboard she’s doing great still about average in all the 🐕 dogs.

She is doing great 😊 in my view, it’s great to get a walking buddy cause I walk so much more with Dixie. Just an added motivation, I don’t think I would have did a second lap there but we did huge amount of stairs. Hooray 😃 


I got near 49 floors of stairs done on that walk. Stellar.





The Max speed is 71 cause I forgot to turn off my tracker as I was going home 🏡 maybe for .88 of a km. We did about four km I figure but that’s just an assumption.

Since I forgot to turn off the tracker.

Dixie did a good 😊 walk about.


82 active minutes so far and it’s only 11 am

Yesterday she got to 160 active minutes so she surpassed her average for the day.  

A pleasure to walk with Toby and some body to find my hat 🧢 and leave it in the lost and found bin.

Made my day.

It sounds like you had a wonderful time at the scenic dog park with Toby and Dixie! It's great that you were able to enjoy the beautiful surroundings while also getting some good exercise in. Dixie seems to be doing really well on the local leaderboard, and it's lovely to hear that she motivates you to walk more. 


Finding your hat must have been a relief, and it's always nice when good people look out for each other and contribute to a sense of community, like putting lost items in a lost and found. Plus, getting in a good number of stairs is an impressive accomplishment!

Celebrating Ten Years and Living My Best Life🧘‍♂️ A Quiet Day at Home

By
  🎉 Celebrating 10 Years Together Last night was a beautiful celebration of a decade spent with Kim. We marked our 10-year anniversary with a cozy dinner at The Keg, where I indulged in a hearty 20 oz steak and Kim opted for a more modest 8 oz cut. It felt so good to get out together and enjoy a special evening. We kept things simple—just water to drink, with fresh bread and salad to start. The atmosphere was perfect, and I soaked in every moment of our time together. We’re incredibly grateful for our families, who made the night even more special. My parents generously gave us cash to enjoy our dinner, and Kim’s parents gifted us movie money so we could extend the celebration. Their thoughtfulness reminded us how lucky we are to be surrounded by love and support. Family and friends made it sweeter We were so blessed by our families: my parents gave us cash to enjoy the night and Kim’s parents sent money for a movie treat. Our friends even gifted us a 20% tip card for the meal...

Gratitude, Good Food, and Good Books

By
 A Thanksgiving weekend of family meals, long walks, and reaching 86 books this year Bryan and I headed out for a walk after he returned from his sister’s Thanksgiving gathering, settling into a steady 30‑minute pace that carried us just under 2 km. The air was crisp with a light breeze, the kind of weather that makes movement feel effortless. I’ve always loved these cooler temperatures—my body doesn’t have to work as hard, and the transition from “easy mode” into a gentle warm‑up felt natural. Carrying 30 pounds with me added that extra layer of challenge, but it blended seamlessly into the rhythm of the walk. We paused at a park bench along the way, taking a moment to sit together before snapping a photo. That small break reminded me how these walks are as much about connection as they are about distance or weight carried. The combination of fresh air, conversation, and the grounding presence of the season made the outing feel restorative. It wasn’t just a walk—it was a reminder...

Back in Stride: A Run Worth Celebrating

By
 After seven weeks of setbacks and recovery, I laced up with Dixie and reclaimed my rhythm—3.64 km of steady effort, heart in the aerobic zone, and a reminder that progress starts with showing up. This afternoon, Dixie and I laced up and headed out for a run while the daylight was still holding on. It felt so good to be back out there after a bit of a break, moving at our own pace and enjoying the fresh air together. There’s something about running with Dixie that makes the effort lighter—her energy and joy keep me motivated, even when I’m easing back into the rhythm. At first, I thought about pushing myself to five kilometers, but I remembered the back pain I’ve been dealing with and decided to listen to the advice of my AI fitness coach: don’t overdo it on the first run back. That reminder helped me focus on the joy of the moment instead of chasing distance. Sometimes the smartest choice is to start slow, and today proved that pacing myself was exactly what I needed. The run en...
