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!

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!

The weather today was just what this Doctor ordered! We had the afternoon off, and spent if all outside, soaking up the rays and getting some things done outside. The wind was calm, the lake nearby was looking very good, and has been going down. Once we got done checking out the lake, then….
…we spent the rest of the time outside doing yardwork. Here Sarah is out working in the garden after getting it tilled, and ready to start planting. No medicine can do for you what being outside and enjoying the weather, and staying active can do. After such a long time always being stuck inside, it was great to be able to take advantage of this beautiful day. Enjoy!

The snow is finally gone, and it was a great day to be outside. Walking along the bike trail with Buddy, then later doing some running on my own. The ice is all off of the lake as well, and the water is going down. All in all, I think Spring is finally getting here…
…now we just need to wait for everything to bloom, and get greener. It is nice walking along the trail by the Lake. Great time to think. I hope everybody had an enjoyable Easter as well.

Traveled to Pittsburgh for a conference on monday, and walked across the street from the hotel to hit the bike trail for a run monday morning. Great weather, upper 60’s at 6AM, got to almost 80 later in the day. What a nice change. I had never been to Pennsylvania before. One of my goals is to run in every state in the US…I can now take Pennsylvania off the checklist.
The bike trail along the river leads right past the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center and Sports Training facility. Here they do the latest research when it comes to concussions in athletes, which is what the conference was on. Now I can use this knowledge back home when evaluating athletes with concussions, and helping to decide return to play, and oveall being safe in sports.
