Taking A Walk

by Dwayne Phillips

Another often-asked question is, “what is your day like?”

A typical day, hour by hour

1. wake
2. 06:30 breakfast
3. Do my Tech blog from the motel room (if the WiFi access is working)
4. Bible reading
5. 08:00 pack, load the car, checkout, drive to starting point
6. 08:30 start walking
7. 15:30 stop walking
8. drive to motel, check in, unpack
9. 16:00 move photos camera to computer, photo database
10. shower and wash the day’s clothes
11. 17:00 dinner
12. 18:30 write this blog and put photos on Wikipedia
13. 19:30 either read some fiction of play the guitar
14. 20:30 breathe a bit
15. 21:00 go to bed

Monotonous? Maybe as each day tends to be the same as the day before schedule wise. Early schedule? Yes. We seem to live on an early schedule.

We do this same schedule Monday through Saturday. We don’t walk on Sunday. One day of rest each week is necessary for 49 year old people.

Boring? Absolutely not. One surprise in this taking a walk is how busy I am.

I wish there were a couple more hours in the day so I could rest. Walking 15 to 20 miles each day does introduce some measure of fatigue. Trying to sleep in a different motel bed each night is not restful.
