Another great day and also one that began to look like it wouldn’t happen. Carol only had today this week to walk and we wanted to do this while I was on my fall break which I had only one more week left. But I woke to heavy rain. We had set today to walk the Monona trail and began over by Nora Plaza. It had been planned she would pick me up at 10:00. But at 10:00 it began to rain again. So Ok, lets make it 11:00 but it was still raining at 11:00. Then it was agreed that we would leave at 12:30 and the radar seem to give us the green light on this idea. But the whole drive over it rained. It rained hard, it rained light and then it rained just any why it chooses to. We were both pleased to with the fact that none of this rain detoured us from our plan. But thank you Lord, for when we pulled into our parking place the rain stopped. Now this was no guarantee that it would not start again but we just had faith it wouldn’t, and actually it didn’t. This part of the Monona trail was just beautiful. We walked about 3 and ½ miles and then arrived at some quite little restaurants and sat and eat a small lunch and then headed back. The sun even came out for a while. We had a great walk and had fun talking as we went. It was almost 7 miles which is longer than I had ever walked and was pleased I made it and no worse for the ware.

I’m at it again and walking at Arbuckle Acre. I wanted to walk there because I wanted to walk by town hall to see all the Build a Bails displays. It was our first time to put something in the towns fall display. So off I went. It was fun for us to build it.  There were lots of displays but mostly business. My miles are clicking away and I see that before long I will be zeroing in on 200 miles. Who would have thought. It was such a great thing to spend so much time reflecting on all of Gods Creation. Oh, Lord I pray I will not stop walking.

I have looked forward to this walk. Carol and I went to Eagle Creek. I have wanted to for some time but Bill felt I needed someone to walk with me over there so Carol agree to go. She took her beautiful dog and it was just a beautiful day. We walked in the area of old nature center and then the path that leads out into the lake. There were lots of others out walking and enjoying the day. The best of all was that Carol would be willing to walk even in the winter.
