It rained 2 days since I started walking - and I didnt do it - but got it done yesterday and today - the first day I walked I wore shorts and it was great. yesterday and today - winter coat and sweat pants ! YUCKKY weather ! I agree about just seeing the flowers and trees budding, blooming, turning green.......it just makes me feel good ! I live in the boondocks, plenty of places to walk - on the road , thru the fields, or the long driveway back to my son's "soon to be house". I take my 2 Jack Russells with me when I am not going on the road, and we have a great time. Great idea doing this as a group !
