I have to admit that when I woke up this morning and saw how cold it was I thought of skipping my walk.Then I went online and I looked at my blog, among other things. When I saw the beautiful Fall photos I had posted, I knew immediately that I wanted to get out there to our favorite route. Although I had walked somewhere else this week, I hadn't walked with the "group" for a couple of weeks.
I quickly shut down the computer and jumped into the shower and got myself over to our meeting spot. Things have changed in New England lately.
The leaves are quickly scampering off the branches and there is a cold, Winter warning in the air.
Although we all had nylon jackets on, as we walked we longed for scarves, hats, anything! We were COLD!
Becca and I complained that our noses were freezing. Lori commented that she had a scarf, hats, gloves, everything in her car. That didn't help us at the time. Becca fondly thought of her scarf hanging on the doorknob at home. Ahhh...thoughts of the bright, hot, sweaty days when we first began our walks....But the sun was out and warmed us and we walked briskly.
Soon, I unzipped my jacket and realized that I didn't need the gloves anymore. Lori had pulled those out of her bag of tricks and handed them to me when we started out.
This is the HONEST truth: When we completed our walk --we felt like THIS!
