500 Mile Walking Journey with  Kerry and Jean  Let's Get Walking!  "All truly great thoughts are  conceived  by walking." Fredrick  Nutzsche What a week we have had! While Kerry and I walk, we talk! It's a great way of sharing our thoughts and bouncing of new ideas off each other.   We are so very close again to our next milestone of 75 miles.  Soooo, we're planning something really cool for next weeks celebration.  This week we kept close to home with our usual walk around the marina. Occasionally, we get lucky and see a big bird fly by, like when we caught the pelican taking off.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fmYsznrt8M&t=9s  Spring Creek Marina is getting ready for their 4th of July celebration.

500 Mile Walking Journey with  Kerry and Jean  Let's Get Walking!  Progress Report Time It's Sunday Morning.  It's official  Summer's here.  Today we walked up to our little market and got coffee and donuts.  We're trying to see if we can add miles by going to different places each day, just to mixed it up a bit.  However, we are finding that the most fun and interesting daily walk is around the  Spring Creek Marina with the birds migrating.  If you are just joining us this week,  we have just completed our second milestone of walking 50 Miles.  Here is our celebration. https://500mileswalkingjourney.blogspot.com/2017/06/500-mile-walking-journey-50-mile.html We celebrated with our daughter, Sarah and our grandson James for a hike and picnic in the Ruby Mountains of Nevada.  Now that we are retired, and have all the time in the world, we thought we would walk, hike, and spe...
