I picked Lisa up at a little before 7 o' fricking clock this morning. She was my navigator. We were able to find the trailhead up in the High Chaparral Open Space. It's a nice trial. You can walk side by side which makes it easier to carry on a conversation. There were lots of bunnies up there. I love seeing them scampering around. The trail had some good ups and downs. I got winded a couple times but I just slowed the pace a little and did just fine. I'm thinking of going up there again tomorrow to scout out the rest of the trail (now that I'm comfortable with the trail). There were other people out there and one dog. It looks like a pretty active trail. I want to figure out the easiest way to get there. I think it might be going the way we did today on Chaparral Road to Old Farm to Silo Ridge. I'm going to check though to see if parking at the trailhead for the Homestead Trail leads directly to the gravel trail. I'll do some exploring up there.
It was really nice to have someone to walk with though I don't mind walking by myself at all (as long as there are other people around). I want to go back up there to take some pictures of the trail sign, the trail itself, the overlook and maybe even a bunny. Oh yeah, we also saw a gorgeous blue bird up there this morning. I may bring my digital camera to get some better pictures than the cell phone takes. The cell phone takes decent pictures but the digital camera is so much better.
Lisa and I are going to get together Thursday to do some grocery shopping and then cook a spaghetti sauce. I'm looking forward to doing that with her. I don't have much planned for the rest of the day today so I'll probably take my meds and take a nap. Then when I get up I'll clean the kitchen and do some laundry (mostly putting stuff away). The house needs a pick me up today. I'm thinking about seeing if David would like to go walk that trail this evening. I'll have to check with him on that. Adios for a few hours.
