Getting some sun and fresh air!

It's been a while since I've posted, I apologize for that.  Life gets a little crazy every once in a while and the days click by before you know it...a month or two have passed.

That being said....it's been an awesome spring, not too hot and not too cold.   I've been inspired to go out and get fresh air and plant flowers and even go walking.

My wonderful friend Oksana invited me to go with her to learn pole walking.  I've seen it before but there really was not an appeal to me until I tried it.  WOW!  I was very pleasantly surprised.    BTW...a huge thank you to Monika A. who gave me a set of poles at Christmas time so I had a set to use  

What a exciting way to walk.  They really support your body and they really helped me to walk a lot further than I normally would have.  Also, for me walking uphill is a bit of a struggle but not with the walking poles!  Before I had a chance to think that I might not make it up a hill,,,I was already at the top.

A special thank you to Oksana and to our instructor Liz.   I have a date with Oksana tomorrow morning at the local park. I know it's going to be fun!

Until next time
Cheers  :o)
