A Late Winter Day

A late winter day at Lullwater Park.


I went for a walk at Lullwater Park yesterday. It was a beautiful, late winter day. As soon as I turned down this path, I paused to appreciate the scene. The beech trees framed the trail perfectly against the brilliant blue sky. I love beech trees; unlike most hardwoods, these trees hang onto their dead leaves until the new spring buds start to pop. The pale brown leaves rustle in the wind and provide added interest and beauty to the winter woods.


Food Journal
(not a great day eating-wise, but at least I didn't over-eat.)

9am
3 slices of bacon
2 boiled eggs
1 orange
coffee with cream

5pm
Fuji Apple Chicken Salad from Panera
brazil nuts

8pm
1 cup of vanilla ice cream with sliced almonds

Activity
-I'm getting my house ready to put on the market. I worked all day long in my attic. I hauled many loads down the pull-down stairs to the back porch, sorted it, then took two truck loads to Goodwill. I'm exhuasted!
-I took a break about 3pm and took Melvin on another long walk at Lullwater.
-I had a very active day, and I'm pleased about that.
