May 8-14

My Grandma had a stroke two weeks ago and passed away on May 4. It was a very long week at the hospital, with family, and making arrangements. Not much time for walking.

Chinook. My Grandpa was involved with them somehow. He was a pilot and taught people how to fly. I'll have to ask him to tell me about it.

666...awesome. I thought about walking further so it would be 6.67, but decided to leave it at that.

There are honeysuckle and blackberry bushes all alongside the walking path in my neighborhood. When I was little, we had a honeysuckle bush in our backyard and I used to eat the nectar. They smell so good! I guess they are in full bloom right now because when you drive down the road with the car windows down you can smell them too.
When the blackberries are ready, I think I might put on some gloves and go picking.

Ugly day for a walk. My sister and I went to the park in TN where my Grandma lives. It was 90 and sunny last week. Now a cold front has come through and was rainy and 60 all weekend. But the weather's looking nicer this week.


There's some discrepancy with this distance. The path that my sister and I walked is 1 mile and we walked it 3 times. I checked along the way and we were on track, but I don't know what happened. So I'm going with 3 miles for this post.
