Season's Changing

500 Mile Walking Journey
celebrating our first milestone of 25 miles out of 500 mile walking journey
Good Morning video

This is a quick blog for today.
We walked our home base walk around the Spring Creek Marina today with our grandson.
With the changing of the season into summer we have changed the time we walk.
We now try to get out closer to 7:30 in the morning since the sun comes up earlier and it's beginning to get much too hot to walk any later. 
One thing we have learned  on our walking journey is to be prepared for the heat. 
Take along plenty of water. 
2. a hat
3. sunscreen
4. we usually wear long sleeve athletic running shirts to protect our arms. 
If you have any other items you bring add them in the comments.

African Loins at the Idaho Falls Zoo

500 Mile Walking Journey with Kerry and Jean  Let's Get Walking! This week we went to a ZOO to walk. We visited the Idaho Falls Zoo with our son Matthew.  When your a walker and your goal is to walk 500 miles in half a year, you count every step.  While we walked all around this zoo and spent almost 2 hours there  our miles only came to .64.  So, we had to do another walk around the river after dinner.  Enjoy our trip to the zoo.  We must have spent 30 minutes watching the loins.  We got there early in the morning while they were still active.

500 Mile Walking Journey Today we are going to take our second home base route.  The first one is walking around the Spring Creek Marina, which we do everyday.  The second is once a week to get our mail.  This route is from our house to JJ's for breakfast,  then on to the mail box, and then home.  The miles are small 2.7, but, the breakfast is so worth it.  This means that we will have to do another walk this evening to keep the miles close to 3-5 miles each day. I like to take videos of where we walk. I'm new to film making and they don't always turn out the way I would like them to. I'll get better at this because once a week we plan on going on a field trip outside of our neighborhood.   This is just the beginning of our journey.  So far we are up to 17 miles.  I hope you are thinking about sharing your walking journey with us here.  We would like to start a global community of walkers.  Here is...
