What a day!
I started by going to the gym and jogging 2 miles then getting 20 minutes in on the elliptical machine. From there it was home for some breakfast then out with the wife to go hiking and walking. We did it differently today. We picked spots we used to go to that are on the small side and tried to fit in multiple locations and some neighborhood walks too.
We went to Luber Run park and walked 1.14 miles, then we went to the Winkler Preserve and hiked 1 .86 miles. The trails there were somewhat hilly but oh so scenic.
After this it was a trip home for a power nap and some TV. After that it was back out to walk some neighborhoods. We went to Clarendon in Arlington County (a few neighborhoods over) to walk around and see some nice streets and then hit the shops to get me some mew hiking boots. As we walked around the neighborhood we found a common theme, many of the houses had cuckoo decorations, Loonie even! The on that stood out the most was a coat of arms free standing outside a home’s front entrance. It had bunny ears on it and Marti Gras beads on it.
That wasn’t the only weird thing. One House had a panther statue and a dog statue chained up in front. Others had Gargoyles, gnomes and other things too. Weird! So after this walk it was home for some dinner and wouldn’t you know we went out for another walk after dinner.
For the day I walked 7.43 miles in 3 hours and 12 minutes. Nothing amazing but still a great way to spend time with my wife.
