I did my walk... getting in a fast mile, and am thinking I need to do some calculating so that I have a place to walk *to*...

At one point I was "walking to a worldcon", so to speak, but that got away when I got sick.

I wonder if it makes sense for me to start on Friday or Monday...walking to Denvention 3?
Let's see, if I take the route my Delorme tells me I should take, it's roughly 2100 miles (2085.78). I'd have to figure the number of days between now and Denvention, assume 1 day off a week... whoa, that's quite a trip. Three miles a day or so, of the top of my head. Maybe I'll print it out and think about it. Of course if I start tomorrow, it won;t be as far per day...

Speaking of walking or not: I'm not the only one
who needs to watch that physical fitness


Meanwhile, I walked outside for an extra walk today and saw that... someone or something has stolen the last two day lily blooms. I'm...really sorry, if not aghast. Who eats day lily blooms, anyway? Could have been the wandering deer herd, I guess. I am officially bummed!

My sympathies. I know pretty much how you feel. Someone has stolen the lovely odd orange-flame tulips from my yard just before they bloom the past two years. I'm thinking of digging up the bulbs and moving them closer to the house so I can protect them.

I went for a walk today too - needed beans for chili and figured that if I drove there and back, I'd probably spend more on gas than on the beans (which is kind of a weird combination of ideas if you stop and think about it and it's better not to). It's raining down here, what I think of as an Irish rain - cool but not cold, gentle and misting. Which is why I took the walk. The local continuing adult education program is offering a class in Irish ceilidh dancing and I really want to take it. I'm just worried about whether I have the stamina for it. Walking, otoh, I can do.

Yeah, deer will eat day lillies.

But then, those hoofed rodents will eat damn near anything.

I'm currently bicycling to Portland, Oregon from Ohio. I only have another thousand miles to go!

Hrmmm, now *that* is a neat way of looking at things. I wonder if they sell a pedometer (or whatever it would be called) for a bike (which is *my* form of exercise). *grin* Id be wanting to bicycle to Dublin, but thats quite a ways away :)

Does this mean you're actually thinking of being at Denver's worldcon in 2008?
