HAPPY 60TH BIRTHDAY ART.
As expected, the clouds moved in last night and this morning is warm, humid, and cloudy. I enjoyed my coffee while working on the blog and then Bella and I set out for a power walk. My joints, knees especially, but hips as well are killing me. So, no running. I might do a little skip step just to keep the strain off my back, but a brisk walk to raise my heart rate and create a "glisten" is all I really need.
So, we set out on the Commando Trail. The first half of it is through the woods and then it goes out along one of the main roads and then heads back into the woods. The whole thing is about 4.6 miles. I figured we would go through the woods and then when we get to the construction area we would turn around and go back the way we came through the woods. So that's what we did. We we came out of the woods we were almost at the 2.5 mile mark. So we walked through the construction until we hit the mark and then turned around.
I use two workout monitors when I walk or run or what ever. One is the Garmen Watch that I wear that monitors distance, heart rate and calories. The other is "Map my Fitness", an app on my phone. The Map my fitness announces my time, distance and split-mile time every half mile. My watch vibrates on the mile marks. I can look at it and see what my time and distance as well. When I turned around, both devices said I had gone 2.5 miles. On the way back, though, something happened and they got off from each other. When I got back to the rig my watch said I had gone 4.6 miles and my phone said 5 miles. Quite often they don't agree. Who knows.
After I got back and cooled off for a bit and then took a shower. I grabbed the laundry and the propane tank and took off. I put tow loads of laundry in and then went to Outdoor Rec. to pick up Rob's package. It wasn't there. Someone had picked it up and took it back over to the Campground. So, I got the propane tank filled and then headed back. I picked up Rob's package and and put the clothes in the dryer and then put another two loads in the washer and went back to the rig.
I fixed a little something to eat while watching another episode of my Netflix series "Jessica Jones". So, for the rest of the day and evening I ran back and forth to the laundry and watched my series.
Not a very exciting day, but at least I got my exercise in and the laundry done. Tomorrow I will clean!
