Let's Get Walking! 
Progress Report Week 7
It has been so hot here with lots of fires to the West and East of us.
The air has been hot and heavy with smoke.
We went up to Twin Falls thinking 
we would do some hiking by the canyon ridge, but it was 100 degrees there too!
We have not walked much since 4th of July.
We did celebrate our 75 miles walking doing the Freedom Run 5K .

Progress Report:
Miles Walked: 80.5
Miles to reach 500 goal: 419.5
Getting closer each week,
our next milestone is at 100 miles 

It's especially important to drink lots of water when your walking in this summer heat. 
Tip, you can freeze one of your water bottles the night before, it will defrost as you walk giving you a refreshing cold water drink during your walk. 
Be inspired, Be safe, and 
Let's get walking.

The second home base route for the 500 mile walking journey

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 the photos from this mornings walk.  The l
