| Peggy and Lacey on Greenbelt, MD Volksmarch |
 |
| Skate boarding grounds...no takers though |
Peggy and I went on this walk (Walk with Megan) today around 2:00 pm, Mar. 4, 2018. The weather was mild at about 48 degrees F. Ironically, in Binghamton, NY, they were playing in a foot of snow or shoveling out from a drift at least as high.
We walked around a beautiful lake in Greenbelt, MD, about 8 miles from our apartment. The walk (5K) was sponsored by the Greenbelt Walkers club, a Volksmarch group. We also had a sidekick with us, a yellow lab named Lacey. Rebecca's family was away on a weekend getaway, so we were designated as dogsitters. We are allowed to have pets in our apt., so things worked out fine. She was a good "grand"-dog to care for.
On the path we met many others taking advantage of the sunny day to get out and enjoy nature. Something about the crisp air, sunshine and natural beauty that uplifts us from the normal cares of this world. To all fans of skate boarding, we ran across a special place for skate boarding, but there was no one using it. At my age I think I will pass on the sport, but I know several of my grandkids like to do it.
Previous totals 15K

Total 20K (goal 100K for Megan)
