Outdoor Wednesday

My Outdoor Wednesday, as part of a meme by A Southern Day Dreamer

Tuesday I decided to walk M-Lyons and Bitsy (in the stroller) and the dog down to the river. I think from my house it is maybe a 1.5 or 2 mile walk to the river. I'm not sure exactly. But while it feels like a long walk it is not at all intimidating. It is a mostly flat, all paved trail to the marina and there is a little picnic area on the side.

I did, however, have a meeting at the preschool at 1 Pm to follow up regarding Arbonne. {I had donated a basket to the auction at a Relay For Life event and the mother who won it wanted to meet with me} So we got about 3/4 of the way to the river and I realized I had not alloted enought time to get there, spend time and get back. After PROMISING we would head back later in the day I turned the stroller around. And that was good. I was able to get two orders delivered and do my follow up meeting and my girls were able to play with the other preschoolers at the play ground. Everybody was happy. Around 4:30 I packed up sandwiches, oranges, water, and corn chips (blue ones, my favorites). With all the kids now, we headed back to the river.



Tiger carried dinner:


It was really nice. A gorgeous day for a walk, nice spring weather neither hot nor too cool and for once not raining. We've had a lot of rain around here. Everybody was in good spirits and M-Lyons ran almost 1/2 of the way there. She should sleep well this evening.





The ducks came to inspect our dinner and we let the dog "protect us."





The kids played for almost an hour and we headed home.
