I'm documenting my 70 hikes for turning 70 years old in a little journal, keeping track of the dates, trails, mileage and who I hiked with. Barb has been on all three of my hikes. (She also just turned 70.)

So far each hike has been longer than the previous one. We want to work up to much longer and harder hikes over the coming year.

On today's hike in Catalina Park, we tried something new. We started on the Sutherland Trail, an old standby for us, but veered off onto an unmarked trail called Dripping Springs. A lot of hikers had told us about this trail, and we decided that now is the time to start branching out and find it.
It was a beautiful hike, sunny and peaceful with a combination of wide open views, saguaros towering against the blue sky, and leafy cooler spots by the water.
We got in a good workout, and now my muscles are pleasantly fatigued.
Juniper update: Here she is with her curly bed head hair peering into the stocking I made for her last Christmas. She'll be two next month!
Have a colorful day
I do so love this idea!!! Good for you!!! And we know you'll make them all. how adorable of your grand daughter! Priceless photo!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, such a good idea to keep a record of your hikes in a journal!
ReplyDeleteYes, you will succeed. I am very puffed tonight because we did 5370 steps today, over 5000 for the first time since February when my year of bad health started. I can go mostly w/o the cane, except I need it when KoKo walks because of the coyotes.
ReplyDeleteI may be myself again some day!
