Snow - or not....

This morning I took my walk in snow - big, wet, puffy flakes coming down from the sky. I took Joanna to work at 11:30, then parked the car and walked around the sidewalks of The District (walking next to the buildings was a bit of protection from the snow). I walked right past Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, Marble Slab Creamery, and the Red Robin, and was not bothered at all by the sight or smell of food and treats. I think I will walk there more often; it's a nice change.

This evening, the sun is shining again with not a cloud in the sky, and I am ready to walk again through the neighborhood before the sun goes down. Utah is great in the Spring - you never know what to expect!

Walkin' In the Sunshine

We have had such beautiful days yesterday and today! The breeze has been a bit nippy, but the sun has been bright and shining as I walked around the short block across the street from us. The crocus are gorgeous - all purple and yellow - and the hyacinths and daffodils are opening up. I even had a great conversation with a robin who was keeping me company yesterday the whole length of my neighbor's yard. Walking felt so-o-o good. I could walk at a fairly brisk pace, too; my 1/4 mile took no more than 8 minutes, with no hurting knees or hips and no shortness of breath. I am loving this!!!
