My Walking/Exercise Routine?

Off to a Slow Start.  But the Operative Word Here is START.

Day One.

First Some Simple Housekeeping Tasks Before Out the Door.

Feed the Cat.  Ah Good, the Lady’s Up.

Start the First Laundry Load.

Double Billing.  Now Get Walking.

Morning Paper.

Meet Morning Feet.

I Know, Flip Flops are Not Serious Walking Attire.

May Have to Rethink This.

But Just Go.  See How Far You Get.

Pick East?

Or West?

Early Morning.  In Either Direction, the Neighborhood is Still Asleep.

I See that Walking Brings Everything Into Sharper Focus.

Normally Buzzing By in the Car, I Miss it All.

So I’m Off on My 15 Minute Walk.

Getting Up Close and Personal.

Stop/Snap.  The Neighbors’ New Adobe Wall is Done.  Very Nice Job.

Stop/Snap.  Hey, I Think I know This Lost Dog.

Stop/Snap.  Irrigation Ditch is Way Too Muddy for Walking along the Banks.

Stop/Snap.  Cactus is the Plant of Choice for Fence Lines Here.

  Low Water Tolerance.

And a Security Barrier.  Yikey-Yikes.  Steady.  Steady.  Step Away.

Stop/Snap.  The Cactus are Liking Last Night’s Monsoon Rains.

Cactus are Not Very Welcoming.  But Pretty in Their Own Skin.

Walking Allows You To See the Beauty.  Up Close.

Stop/Snap.  A Kid and His Dog Have a Much Quicker Pace Than Me.

Stop/Snap.  Passing the Library Filled with Knowledge.  Always Quiet.

Stop/Snap.  Adobe Houses – Snug and Quiet Behind Adobe Walls

Shhh.  Soft Steps.

 Stop/Snap.  Hot Air Balloons Up in the Early Morning.  Right on Schedule.  4 in the Air.

 I’m Moving Faster than this Biker.  But this isn’t a Race.

 Maybe Just Some Healthy Competition.  In My Own Head.

15 Minutes Already???

 Turn Back for Home.  Sun Almost Up Over the Mountain.

 A Mediocre Start.  But a Start.

 I Could Be a Lot Faster If I Didn’t Do the Stop/Snap Photo Ops.

Oh Look…Morning Glories are So Happy even on an Old Chain Link Fence.

 Hmmm.  I Need to Re-Think This.  Get a Tad More Serious.

 Always Magic in The Tiny Moments.  And the Coffee is Ready.   🙂
