Rain is very important. That is why I am glad we got rain on Wednesday November 5th. A LOT of rain. Matter of fact it began raining Tuesday evening around 5:00 and hasn’t stopped in 23 hours. I was going to go deer hunting today. I was going to walk for at least a couple…
Stress makes me ill therefore Wednesday October the 29th I was fairly feeble with the strength of a over-cooked noodle. It made me really mad too because this was the absolute most beautiful day of the year. Mid 60’s, partly cloudy, slight breeze, trees beginning to change colors and I couldn’t make it out of…
Wednesday October 23rd was spent in the South San Juan Wilderness in southern Colorado. Between the morning and evening elk hunt I managed to squeeze in time for a quick jaunt about the countryside. Here is what I saw. It was really quite challenging to ‘walk’ in a new place, my eyes had to be…
Seeing how this Wicked Chicken is freezing her feathers off amid the wilds of South San Juan, I can’t share my walk from last week, October the 15th. You will be seeing that walk as a bonus in the near future. So for today I thought it would be fun to share some of my…
Today was a special day! My little sister, who has been globe-trotting for about 5 years, flitted down at home base for awhile and came to walk with me. I rarely take people with me when I walk, and have never taken another adult, so I made sure she knew how lucky she was! (that…
While the first week of fall was gloriously cool, the second week climbed back into the upper 90’s. Running out of time to walk in the morning hours I headed out to our ‘back forty’ about 5 in the afternoon. And while it was hot and I was plagued by mosquito’s it was still nice…
For the first time in YEARS the first week of fall here in east Texas actually FEELS like the first week of fall! Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy! I awoke to see a brisk 51 degrees on the back porch thermometer, pulled on some jogging pants, a long-sleeve T, grabbed my camera and headed for the…
There is season in everyone’s life that the devil attempts to thwart your efforts at goodness with vigor. He has been breathing down my neck this last month. Or maybe I’m just over-scheduling myself. OR maybe the devil is over-scheduling myself FOR me! yes, that must be it! BINGO! Now, what were we talking about?…
Ever have a day that flies by so quickly that one second you are sipping coffee and the next thing you know its time for supper? Wednesday September the 10th was like that for me. And so I found myself at 6:30 p.m. in the parking lot of First Baptist church with nary a picture…
As I wander about my blog I realize the “Wicked Walk” section is piling up rather quickly so I figured I better start dating the darn things. So I did. Wednesday September 3rd was cloudy, cool and rather lovely. I walked about 8:30 a.m. Here is what I saw. Wild Fruit. I think the first…
