A perfect Spring Day…great temperature, calm winds…perfect to be outside. These golfers enjoy the day, and get exercise, although they would get more exercise if they leave the cart behind.
Besides anything exercise related, spending time out like this is a good social event as well. A time to relax, enjoy the company of friends, and be active. This is all important when it comes to general wellness, and well being. So, everybody, get outside, and move! Go do something, and enjoy this weather.

In between rain bursts, hopefully you have had time to enjoy the weekend, and Memorial Day. But remember what Memorial Day is really about…honoring those who died during military service. Don’t forget what they gave up for us.
If you have not gone to see the Veterans Memorial here in Watertown, go see it. It is very nice. Remember again what they did for us. It is located out at City Park, so go out for a walk along the paths here, and go see who from our area sacrificed for us.

Well, yesterdays weather was great…while it lasted. At least we had a good day then. We got lots of things done outside as well, plus our run in for the day. I went earlier, then went to work outside on the lawn, and trimming trees. I took these of Sarah out on the bike trail…
…it is so nice having access to the bike trail right just around the corner from our house. This way, we don’t have to worry about traffic. Now all we need is for the weather to stay good for more than one day in a row! For now, we take it as it comes.

It must be Spring Time. Outside working with the lawn and garden today, and we were met by a lot of “peeping/chirping” as a Mama duck and her ducklings were walking along the lawn, and in and out of the shrubs. All in a line, following each other. Spring must be here…
…while I was working on the lawn, Sarah was finishing up in the garden. All set now, just sit back and watch it grow! It was just a great day to spend outside. Later in the afternoon Molly wanted to go for a bike ride, so she and I rode around the lake for a 15 mile ride. Fun day!

It turned out to be a great day for the 1st annual Race for Chase…a combine run/bike team event. I gave other details yesterday. Weather kind of hindered some people from deciding on whether they would come or not, but for those of us who did, we had a really fun time…
…Sarah and I won the coed division in a time of 56:01…just under 10 miles total for the course, just getting beat out on the last stretch by the overall winners by about 13 seconds. Bottom line, it was for a good cause, was competitive, and a lot of fun. First time Sarah and I were in an event as a team. Partners for life!

I was not the only one happy with having some sunny weather, even if the temperature is still cooler than usual. I got to spend the day outside, went for a run, bike ride, and then some yard work. Here, Buddy is relaxing, catching some rays, but he got to go for a walk earlier with Sarah….
…and then he got to run around the yard the rest of the day. It is amazing what sunshine can do to your mood, and overall attitude. This kind of weather is long overdue, and hopefully, the trend continues. After such a long winter, we all deserve some great weather. Enjoy everybody!
