Yesterday, I stumbled upon a cool blog called Ashville Walks. This person is exploring his town through different walks and documenting with photos. As I told him, I found it very inspiring. Since moving to my town last year, I have noticed that there are a lot of neighborhood parks. Boy are there a LOT; 36 to be exact! Now I know I had complained about lacking motivation to get back into exercise; but now I have found my muse. Next week, my puppy will have had all her shots and can begin to go out in public, so she and I will explore all of the parks in my town. Some are within walking distance, some will be when we build up our stamina, others we'll have to drive to. I am looking forward to finding the similarities and differences between them and also getting a little more fit! My first park (Stephen Michael Linen, Jr. Memorial Park---what a mouthful!) will be a few blocks from my house. This will be Xena's (photo, right) maiden voyage on a leash. We have practiced a little and she has presented her stubbornness a great deal. It seems her bottom becomes super-glued to the ground when she hears the 'click' of the leash into her collar.

Vanessa,
Thanks for the comments. The dog in the photo (Bellini) belongs to a friend. My dog Phoebe is a mutt, but she looked very much like Xena when she was a baby. I will post a picture for you...they could be twins. How did you find my journal?
