New Hiking Partner!

Awesome Saturday last weekend, as I took Natalia out for a hike accompanied by Roisin. Ok, I'm lying, not much of a trail. Lots of rocks and high brush. Carried Natalia about 2 miles and was tired, but both girls are tough. Once I'm out it is forward and onward and overall it was a great Saturday.  I was reminded of the old days when I used to take my dogs out here year round to play in the many ponds.

Paris Roubaix was last Sunday and as usual I only catch the highlights. This is the only race I truly would love to see live with a bunch of fans and friends. Sadly looks like I have to move to Europe for that day. At a bar drinking and eating french fries with garlic mayo.

Went out again on another hike with Natalia and Roisin on Friday by the house and again an awesome day. Checked out the local pond and admired the ducks there. My new hiking partners have no problems getting dirty and sitting back, admiring nature and relaxing. Lucky to finally get out of the house in such a way and have met such an awesome gal. Thanks again. As lately, slowly cleaning up my firewood stack and cleaning the yard.

Still reading Odyssey and as previous titles on the series a page turner. McDevitt keeps the story alive and keeps adding to his series. Not sure on my next read and I know it will be hard to find my next book.

Drill weekend coming up this weekend and looking forward to it and see whom else got tagged for deployment. It will be my first drill on the other side of the table. You can now say I will have experienced everything at the reserve center. Who knew my life would take me to so many places. But I am not one to sit and take up space as so many do. Even though I do wish in the future to just sit back and relax and spend time at home with no worries, kind of like finally time to sit back and relax. No more adventures for me that take me away from home.
