The Kindness Rock Garden
Bundle up and join us on Saturday, at Tim's, at 8:00 am. Remember, there's no such thing as bad weather; only bad clothes... Some may suggest an alternative meeting spot if it is slippery - watch the blog comment section for that. Last weekend, some folks walked the PATH and others walked from Tim's. Whatever works for you - just step out and join in.
Mid-week options include:
On Wednesday mornings, a small group meets at Tim's at 9:00 am. Charlotte will send an organizing email.
Monday and Wednesday mornings, another group generally walks at 8:00 am - however, check the blog comment section to confirm the meeting spot and time - both vary. If the weather is iffy, the Dome at Monarch Park is the destination of choice - and the price is right - free.
Sunday - we wish Libby, Arlene, Ruth all the best as they complete the Robbie Burns 8 km race. I hope the weather gods are kind that day.
An event which we have added to the race calendar is "The Coldest Night of the Year" - a fund raising event for many charities. Any interest in forming a team and picking a charity to support? Feb. 22, at 5:00 pm. More information, a list of the current charities and registration can be found here - seems like a good cause:
Training for the Mud Cat starts in February. Libby has posted a training schedule so check it out. Thanks, Libby.
Now, back to the rock garden: Thanks to Eileen for the discovery near Yonge & Eglinton and photos. Thanks to Helen for the background information: https://www.thekindnessrocksproject.com
Seems like a great project.

I won't be out tomorrow, as I'm doing some more training at the zoo. Happy walking everyone, and I love the messages from the rock garden!
I will be out at 8 for a walk.
I just don't know how to call this one. I think walking in the snow would be beautiful but the storm is supposed to kick it up a notch by the time we are ready to leave Tim's. It's the driving part I don't fancy.
If we're not there on time, don't wait for us. I am away for 3 weeks and so if not tomorrow then I'll see you mid-February.
Have a wonderful trip Stacey and Susan.
SKJ
I am away this weekend. Be safe. Hopefully it won’t be as bad as predicted.
Well, ditto what Sharon said. I plan to come and walk but will make a final decision in the morning once I see the what and when of the weather. I am hoping to beat the arrival of the snow and get 6-8 kms done.
Have a wonderful time away Sharon - sounds great.
Deanna - enjoy your weekend.
Olwyn - love to the animals.
Susan
I am hoping to walk, maybe we can beat the snow, I hear it’s supposed to start around 10
Leverne
I’m thinking like Leverne. Would rather walk outside if we can. 6-8K sounds perfect. We’ll check in again tomorrow morning.
I’m hoping to come out in the morning too.
Barb S.
I'll be out if I'm not snowed in.
Ditto for me- I'll be out depending on the weather.
Perhaps we should try the Queen to Dundas up and down route so we can scoot back quickly if it's too icy underfoot?
I will be at Tim’s at 8. Sharon has decided to stay home.
Barb S.
The snow will probably start when we do, but I’m game for a try. See you at 8.
Anyone walking tomorrow morning?
I’m willing to walk in the morning. Tim’s 2 at 8:00 or 8:15?
Leverne
I'll walk tomorrow from Tim's 2 - see you then - either time (above) is fine with me.
Okay, Tim’s 2 it is. It will be cold, so have some face protection. We’re fine for either start time.
See you at Tim’s 2 at 8:15! If anyone disagrees with the time, please post.
It's going to be too cold for me. See you when it warms up a bit.
Change of plans - Up too late - not setting my alarm clock - don't wait for me.
Between work and weather I think I'll pass on walking in the morning.
Are we walking from Helen and Bob’s tomorrow?
That was the plan, last I heard. 8 am?
Roger that.
Not able to join you on Wednesday - hope to see you Saturday. Enjoy your walk.
I’ll be there
Leverne
I'll go
