Walk: Sat. Feb. 16 @ Loblaws

First, Happy Valentine's Day to everyone -- and a Happy Valentiney Birthday to Dawn. Hope your whole day is "rosy."

Well, Chilly Halfers, this is the big one: 18K. Heaven knows what the weather will be like, but we will persevere. If it turns out to be crazy, we will do the same as we did for the 16K: go by time rather than distance. We will walk for 1.5 hours, then turn around wherever we are and walk for 1.5 hours back. Please accept this bouquet in advance for your stellar effort.

Here is a link to our route:

This will be our last week at Loblaws unless Tim's is behind schedule for its reopening next Saturday. This location has been well reviewed by many of our walkers, especially as a start point for winter walks. However, Tim's still holds our hearts for its general Timminess and closeness to the Boardwalk and other fair-weather routes. If all goes well, see you there on the 23rd -- and, of course, at Loblaws on the 16th.

thanks, Helen, and all other well wishers for my birthday greetings. THe really good thing about yesterday was that I didn't have to clear snow away!!
A mini-miracle ..... I will be coming to walk tomorrow morning, but know it is unlikely that I'll be doing the whole distance.

My conscience is not going walking tomorrow, so while the cats away, I will be sleeping in. Yahoo!
See you on Monday providing we don't get more snow! Cynthia

Don't be fooled by the weather warning bar on the right of our blog -- the storm is due to arrive Sunday. Meanwhile, Saturday is expected to be sunny. So let's make tracks while the sun shines! See you at 8:15.
