Day 762: Three miles outside!

At the beginning of January, I joined a group of athletes (?) who have committed to doing one mile of  activity every day in 2014.  Any activity counts: running, walking, elliptical, biking, swimming, spinning.  I have been either walking outside or using the elliptical machine in the basement this month.  The elliptical is so boring, but at least I can keep moving.  I missed one day for a migraine and one day cause we were too busy.  I'll try not to break the streak in February.  Once spring comes, we hope to do many more miles on our bikes and then in May, back to swimming!

You wouldn't think that removing one tree could make such an impact on our yard.  The house looks bare and exposed.  In the spring, I'll plant a redbud that will be exquisite, but we will miss our grand sweeping sycamore.
