My old walking route

I didn't walk any of my regular routes this morning.  We left first thing to go over to the old house to have a day of yard work.  While Ken got started on the yard work I went for my morning walk and walked the route I used to walk when we lived there.  I had a great place for walking there too, up to the park and along paths in the woods.  Before I made my way to the park I walked around town a little bit.

At the edge of the park by the ball fields I picked up this path here.

 This is one of a few foot bridges I crossed over.

 At the end of the first path, it is now more of a road because new sewers were put in and this is so all the big trucks and equipment could make it in to the woods.

 At the end of the path I crossed a street and picked up another path.  The path goes right underneath Interstate 95.

 I am looking up here at 95.  I went under both north and south sides.

 The path goes along a river and I walked down to the river and took this picture.

 The bridge up ahead is called the Pratt Bridge.

 I took this picture standing on the bridge looking down at the water.

Then I turned around and walked back.  It was nice walking along my old route.  I like how it meanders along the river and I can hear the water.  When I moved I thought I'd never find a nice place like this to walk again.  As much I as I like this walk, I like my walk around the lake at home better.
There were a lot of people along the path today walking, running and riding bikes but I only saw one person I knew from when I walked there.  I was a later though than I used to walk so maybe they were all there earlier.
I saw a couple of deer and many birds.  No ducks or geese though.
A bit of a cool front came by last night so it wasn't so humid today which made walking super nice. 
I walked 6.6 miles and for me that was 13,605 steps.

Once I got back to the house I changed my clothes, got out the lawn mower and mowed the lawn, front and back.  Ken had done a lot of weeding, trimming and cutting back tree branches while I was gone.

Lunch time came around and we decided instead of having a DAY of yard work we would have a MORNING only of yard work.

We went back home, washed, and changed clothes and then went out to do a few errands.  Before errands we stopped at Subway and had sandwiches.  I was very hungry because there was no time for breakfast this morning.  I thought I'd be hungry enough to eat my whole sub but still got full after eating half of it.  

So that's been my day so far.  Not sure what the rest of the day will bring.  

Hope you're enjoying your Saturday.

Till next time.......

 Happyone : )

Everybody needs beauty as well as bread,

places to play in and pray in,

where nature may heal 

and give strength to body and soul.
