Wow. I have not had 11k activity in a very very long time. I guess you can tell from the photo that I am in Las Vegas. Walking around is normal and to get between the various venues on the Strip you walk.

Started a vacation today. Walked so much more than normal that I know that my muscles will be sore tomorrow. Walking around airports to catch connecting flights with small windows of time between arrival

Yesterday I was able to exceed the threshold again. It is sort of fulfilling to meet the requirements for more than just one day. I will try my best to do it more often. This photo is of a flower growing

I was so happy that I reached the 7k activity level yesterday that I totally forgot to post the report. I was trying to get several things finished before going to bed , the report being one of them, it

These small pencil like cactus have hair like thorns that are very hard to see and very hard to pull out once they get in your skin. I should know. Earlier today I didn’t see one of them and wearing shorts

Finally another day I reached the 5k threshold. This past weekend I was so close to getting there but just fell short. Like yesterday, I was so busy during the day I never checked on my activity. Not even

Nature is always breathtaking and amazing just to watch what happens next. Sometimes I stop to just stare at it in wonder then remind myself I am supposed to be getting my steps in. Today was another day

I spent most of the day driving, waiting then driving and waiting again. The driving really wore me out and I am exhausted. I was surprised to see 6k of activity when the evening came. I guess before and

I took this photo of the clouds while I was outside walking. I liked the way the light was reflecting off of them and also the shapes. This weekend was a lazy one for me and it rained both days so I did

Another busy but satisfying day as I was able to reach the 5k threshold but only barely. This morning I was walking around and several times I would forget to pick up my phone and take it with me so that

Today I had meetings that I attended which sort of crimped my short walk routine but that was still ok as another part of the routine is to check periodically how many steps I had managed to get throughout

The sun set on another day. It was a busy day doing activity in the yard visiting with friends. Both of these made the day go by so fast and before I knew it I had pasted 7000 of activity steps. I was

First time reaching 6000 steps in a very long time. It made me very pleased to hit that milestone. The change to short walks is making a difference in the number of steps I am able to get on a daily basis.

Well what do I see. A large lizard was in the garage. We have several of these that live in the yard around the house. Most of the time they do not get into the garage but sometimes one does. I took the

Taking small walks around the yard at various times during the day. This is helping me get in the target steps without the need for a long walk. I started trying this after I was having difficulty meeting

Today was very similar to yesterday when considering steps, I was close but not at 5000 steps at the end of the day. I needed 60 more steps so I walked around the back porch so that I would have the right

Again today I worked in the yard trimming out over grown trees and bushes. This past year they sure did grow. I also moved a few rocks that made it very difficult to walk around the yard and not trip on

We received a little rain after a day in the upper 99F. This cooled down the air to the low 80F. I am hoping for a cool night in the low 70F. The poor night have been just below 80F with humidity in the

The sky’s are finally clear after days and days of rain. The Highland Lakes area of central Texas have been receiving a lot of rain. We were lucky since we live up on a hill. Today was shopping day so

Just barely made the 5k activity level on my way to the bedroom to go to bed for the night. I had looked earlier and told myself that I would need more steps but soon forgot about it. Good thing I checked
