Lesson Learned: Skip One Day? OK. Skip Two Days? Um, No.

Hello!

This morning I finally got back out there and walked the one hour. This means that I missed two days and not just one, like I did before. It was like starting all over again and I am tired from my walk today. So, ok. I learned that missing two days makes a big difference!

A couple of years ago when I worked at a university, one our student employees was on the track team. She told me back then that she could not skip more than a day and that if it so happened that she skipped three days - like over the holidays -  for her it was like completely starting at square one when she started back up again. Who knew this would apply to walking?

It was a nice walk, though, and I got some good pictures. A couple of these pics will have a description.

In case you are wondering where I walked today, this is almost two miles from my front door. I walked east toward the mountains on 3300 North (PG)/1100 North (AF) starting at the temple street.

If I could get my carcass out of bed earlier, I could beat the sun because it doesn't peak over the mountains until about 7:30 a.m. nowadays.

In the distance, on the left is an LDS Temple and on the right a regular church building. Mormons use church buildings on Sunday and temples every other day to establish sacred ordinances. There are currently 143 temples in the world. http://www.mormonnewsroom.org/facts-and-stats 


Not sure what they recently cut, but it smelled SOOO good!

Saw four school buses on my walk!

These two saw me coming from a far distance and they stayed right in that position begging for their photo to be taken!

These are horse tracks made some time ago on a wet day. now there are little tiny plants growing in the tracks!

When I got home, I found this fresh juice that my husband had made and left for me! So thoughtful! It was delicious!!!
