I hadn’t done much except stare at my computer today when I realized I needed a distraction. So instead of watering the garden, I decided to go for a walk. South Dakota winter is right around the corner (I can feel it in my waters) and that usually brings well below zero windchills and feet upon feet of snow. The weather has been warming up again (and is forecasted to continue over the course of the week) so I need to enjoy them while they are here! I grabbed my phone and headphones and off I went!

It was the middle of the afternoon on a traditional work day, I only passed 3 people while I was walking for over an hour. 1 lady even said hello. It was windy and gusty at times, but the perfect temperature for a leisurely walk. Not too hot, not too cold – but just right! While I was walking, I was trying to figure out what I wanted to write about today. I didn’t come up with any grand ideas, so I’ll leave you with a picture I took of a tree. If you can’t go for a walk today, you can envision yourself on a walk here:
