Did you take any photos during your walks recently? Your photos are always so fresh and full of air... I'm anticipating seeing some new views, if you don't mind. 🏞

Doing good with getting my steps in. I’m loving my morning walks. Not doing so great with food. Still too much snacking. I do really good for 2-3 days then go back to my evil ways.

I use an app called Runkeeper that allows you to take a picture in the app and then it uses that picture as the "cover page" for my runs (usually just walks nowadays). Most of my walks are pretty much suburban. But I like to take pictures of people's yards and flowers.
Here is one

After my big set back at the start of this month I am trying to get my walking distance back up. I was planning to go to the coast today but there was a lot of beach traffic on the highway. Normally I would never try to get to the coast on a Saturday in June. I just thought there would be fewer people going this year. So I'll wait till a weekday to go. I may even head out later to miss some of the traffic.
anyway, I was in my car so I went to a park I like that I haven't been to in a while. It's a nice park with a walking /biking trail along a slough. Wrong time of year for bird watching but I got in a 3.5-mile walk. The park is right up against Oracle and all of the Oracle buildings are made up of this pretty glass. So I took a picture of them.
BTW, there are about 10 buildings just like this. There are some spots where you can see more of them at once but then you are farther away.

I have seen some improvement conserning my strength. I'm still terrible at strength training, but it doesn't kill me mentally anymore like it used to.
My brother calls my cute little arm muscles "beans". lol.
I think the best approach is to start small and then increase the difficulty.

I've not been sleeping too well due to all of the aches and pains, as I've been painting non stop.

You paint too? Will we get to see your paintings?
That would be awesome.

They do glitter as I've used paint that contains the former.

I took a nice long walk today: 5.1 miles. It was a stunning day of bright sunshine and a light breeze. Perfect walking weather.
