My Trail on Vimeo (http://vimeo.com/105192076)
This is the lakeside trail that I use on days when I walk/jog/run to work. I'm on it for about 3.5 of the 5 miles. This little clip that I took on the way home this evening hardly does it justice, but you get the idea. I see tons of wildlife (deer, raccoons, beaver, muskrat, egrets, herons, geese, wood ducks, turtles, snakes, hawks, kingfishers, bald eagles, etc. And it's nice and shady. I would walk it just for fun, even if it didn't connect the two most important places in my life.
<jealous>
Any of these various places

Nice vid.
It sounds like you're wearing hobnail boots.
It has been so pretty here this summer that I have thought about bringing a phone with me more than once. I hate carrying things but might have to suck it up to share the beauty.
This morning was a beautiful heron in a pond, quietly watching me.

This is what it looks like when we're not in a drought. On the left you can see a little monkey hand puppet. It's our mascot, and whoever finds it moves it somewhere else and then everybody tries to find it again. I haven't seen it for 4 months now.

:D My family did something similar with a small tacky ceramic cat (I think it was a Valentine's Day gift from my grandmother). We hid that thing for YEARS. So much fun!

My dear older brother read that story to me and my younger brother when I was about 8 years old. That night he knocked on our bedroom door after lights out :yikes:

The only running I've done this year is on an indoor track. 5 days until the National Masters T&F Championships!

I sometimes miss my old home, but it's also nice here.

Good luck. I hear that's a fast-ass track.

I know where that is!!! We called it "The Cement Boardwalk"
D'Wife saw Rob Lowe rollerblading there when we were visiting her brother
We went to a bar on Mission Beach Blvd [The Blue Ox, I think it was called?]. The band played indoor and they had a patio where we were. She almost got herself in a fight with half a dozen surfers
Five college girls got arrested St. Patty's day on the boardwalk. I'll be glad when spring break is over.
