Day 499, Thursday July 9

Hey look, tomorrow we'll have been on the trail for five hundred days. Wowzers. GO US!!!!

It's been a busy week. The past three evenings Jim has taken Brody for a run with the bike (due to rain and a busy schedule), and I haven't gone. Still managed to keep my steps up, though, thanks to the noon walks. Today I got 5 miles even with walking the pup evening too.

Day 497, Tuesday July 7

We had a few busy days with Hanna and Craig home. I was low on steps yesterday. It poured rain morning and evening, and Jim ran the pup with the bicycle while I cooked dinner. But I made up for it today.

Congratulations on nearing that big landmark, Val! I think I'll pass 500 miles for the year soon, which means I'm walking at nearly twice last year's pace. Woohoo!

Day 493, Friday July 3

Tuesday played golf in the morning 3 miles. We drove up to Lincoln NH in the evening and had about a 1 mile walk.

Total 4

Wednesday the hike to Owl's Head was canceled because of bad weather, so Bonnie and I did the tour of water falls. We hiked into a bunch of walls and cascades in the rain, about 3 miles. Then went for a 4 mile run in the afternoon as the rain finally let up.

Total 7

Thursday, woke up to a nice looking morning, but the radar showed a big storm heading our way. It poured most of the day. Did a pilates class in the morning, then did a 5 mile train run in the evening. It was raining, but let up some. After dinner Bonnie and I did a 2 mile walk.

Total 7

Thursday, the rain finally broke, so drove up to Crawford Notch and I did a 7 mile hike. Took in Field, Tom, and Avalon, cleared enough that had nice views from the last summit. Back home we did our usual 1.5 mile walk in the evening.

Total: 8.5

Grand total: 26.5

I've been over four miles every day this week, and over five once. Sunny days here in BC, but still cooling off nice at night. I should be over 2000 miles on the Appalachian Trail before the weekend's out! :)
