 Another walk today W-Toby


Toby and I are giving the camera a thumbs up as we start walking to the sugar bowl to get to CoalBanks Trail.

Originally thinking would walk a little little bit further, but the trail ended and was blocked off with signs saying public access, access not recommended so he turned around.


Kind of spooky 👻 I’m sure there’s reasons, I’m not going to go into it.

But we walked under the scenic over pass and came to these signs.

Dixie is happy with how many steps were doing today. She’s like just thrilled with amusement. She sits on the bench right beside me for a photo..

Laughing 😆 and smiling 🙂 


I asked Toby to walk ahead for me to take a photo of him walking away.  I thought it make a good photo, not much of a poet mid afternoon, Toby make a good pace.🤗  we make good time doing our walk.


All ready we are at 28 ranked for the month for Dixie in her leadership month of active minutes.



She well over her active minutes in her day. Tomorrow will show how much above average.


Our map consisted of….


With walking and a little bit of moving around to do laundry at home I’ve almost made it to 5 km today with steps although I didn’t track my first walk the second walk did 2 km.


A pleasure walking with Toby today we picked up some soda from Victoria BC it was a different kind of soda.  🥤 not the brand names you usually see..


It had real cane sugar in it, and tasted Phenomenal.


A rarity at a special grocer store 🏬.


It sounds like you had a wonderful day out walking with Toby! Exploring trails and enjoying the fresh air is always refreshing. It’s interesting that you encountered that blocked-off section — it definitely adds a bit of mystery to your adventure! 


Dixie must be so proud of both of you for hitting those steps and being active. It’s great to see how active she is! Your journey of nearly 5 km with additional walking at home sounds like a solid exercise day. And how fun to try a different kind of soda from Victoria BC — it’s always nice to find unique treats while on an outing!

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...
