It was a good day for walking. I walked a total of 5.12 miles with 1.62 miles on the treadmill.

Happy Valentines Day!

Tonight we went out to Sequoia Restaurant for a very expensive dinner for Valentines Day. Before the dinner was over, my stomach was churning. And when I got home I had several hours of the D.

During the day though, I went bird watching and photographed a mourning dove, a tufted titmouse and a downy woodpecker.

I walked a total of 3.47 miles. Great day for walking.

Bird Watching

Today I joined my gay retirement group at Teddy Roosevelt Island on the Potomac River. We were walking around the island and seeing the sights. It was unusually warm today and the sun was out so it was perfect for walking. I also looked for birds and found the mallard duck and the blue herring. Those are my first two birds this year.

I walked a total of 3.60 miles today. Great day for walking.
