Day 15: Half way now

Day 15: Half way now

Challengers!!!!! We are half way through our 30 day challenge! I have very mixed feelings though. On the one hand, I feel pretty proud of myself for having gone outdoors everyday for 15 days; but on the other hand, I don't feel like I did anything out of the ordinary. I haven't felt all that challenged (not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing). I will focus on the few times that I know for a fact, if it wasn't for this challenge and for you my fellow Challengers; I would not have gone outdoors, like, no way in h*ll would I have gone outdoors.

Yesterday I had my weekly walk with Cathy, and it was exhausting. We have been walking once or twice a week from Magwood to Etienne Brule for years. But today by the time we were almost done I admitted to Cathy that I was quite worn out, and Cathy said it was because it is snowy and slippery and that makes it much more tiring...so yeah, I'll go with that.

The good news though, I got some great pictures. It was a truly beautiful morning and the picture taking was fine. I had to say an extra thank you to Cathy for her patience though as she waited while struggled through snowbanks for a perfect shot of the ducks. 

Our photo challenge for today- I think dog pictures are long overdue, so let's share our dog pics, bonus points if you get a pic of a weiner dog.

I would like to talk about something I witnessed in town over the last several weeks. As I mentioned previously, we had a Polar Vortex. It was too cold to walk to the grocery store, let alone just sit outside all day. Which is what a member of this town had been doing for months.

My Winter Walks
My Winter Walks

I am just back from a walk along the country road where I live, a road bordered by fields and stands of trees. My intention was to get some exercise, which meant covering some distance at a reasonable pace. My intention is important, as it affects many other choices: type of shoes, clothing, walking poles, water, binoculars, camera etc.

 After stopping for the dogs to poop and stopping to change Jett’s diaper (twice) we were off!! We walked through a sunny meadow, climbed up the frozen cascades and returned via a side trail that skirted the riverbank. Bliss.
