A Walk Cut Short


When it comes to getting out and going for walks, Sam and I were doing pretty well this year... that is, up until a couple of weeks ago.

The last couple of weeks have been wet, wet, wet. When it hasn't been raining, the heat and humidity have been oppressive.

But mostly, it's been heavy, daily rain.

On Sunday, the sun was finally out and at first the air seemed relatively dry. Sam and I decided it would be a good time to attempt walking the path by the train yard. This was our first visit since the end of May.

We got about half way down the path and decided it wasn't the best idea. The humidity had jumped up again (likely, being in the woods didn't help) and the remainder of the walk was spent swatting at flies and mosquitoes as we walked faster and faster back to the car.

Maybe next weekend.
