Hi everyone!
I had just barely woken up this morning when my cell phone rang. It was our son needing to talk. So we spent time with him on the phone, but I had to eventually get up as I had Bible study this morning and Jan was driving. I left him and Mike on the phone while I got ready. Turns out I didn’t miss saying ‘goodbye’ as they were still talking after I got done with my shower and whatnot. He did eventually have to go and so did I!
Bible study was good as always and passed quickly. It was time to head for home. After Jan dropped me off, I fixed coffee and lunch. We decided to hike at 2 PM, so I text Jan so she could get ready.
We headed out and very shortly after leaving, it began to sprinkle rain. As luck would have it, I had opted for my older NOT waterproof shoes to wear as I have foot issues that often makes all the hiking I do painful. This particular pair of hikers was the most comfortable of the three pairs I have. As we progressed up the hill, the rain intensified. I began to feel water seeping through the top of the toe box. My jeans legs were also getting a good soaking from the vegetation that encroaches onto the trail. We stopped to wait for Mike to catch up as he had stopped to snap a pic. I decided to head down into Bear Hollow, but halfway into it, Jan and I decided to turn back and head for home. Mike wanted to continue on, even though I really don’t like his hiking on the trails alone all that much. By the time I got home, the seams where the sole of the shoe hooks onto the upper portion, was allowing water in and my feet were seriously getting wet.
I fired up the computer for a bit and worked on commenting on fellow Acifitian’s posts. I was going to have to roast coffee for a customer for tomorrow, but needed to wait until Mike got back to remove the outside vent plugs.
Later; coffee roasted (theirs and ours) and dinner started (homemade chicken soup), I was able to finish my goal for the day on commenting.
Now, after a bit of Actifit and Steem, it will be time for bed. Ironically, it is seriously pouring rain as I type. It hasn’t let up since it started this afternoon, and according to the forecast, is to continue on all night. I almost find it hard to believe that they aren’t calling for rain tomorrow, but they’re not. Crazy weather!
Thanks for stopping by! Don’t forget to keep on steppin’! Any exercise is good for you, so keep at it. Have a wonderful day wherever you are!
