Good Morning!

This is the Port Washington North pier.  

Nice, huh?

They have been working on the waterfront for quite a while ... and it's very beautiful. 

...

It was another perfect day for a walk.  

I did my regular route.

Along the way I thought ... I haven't been saying "Good Morning" and that makes a big difference ... acknowledging the people with whom I share the road (or sidewalk).  So today was a "smile ... hello ... and good morning" day.

It felt good.

Is it a "deed?"

...

I'm glad you took the time to read Monica's letter.  I had the opportunity to do a training walk with her once ... and I was very impressed.  She's (obviously) quite a woman!  

I have been so fortunate to walk with amazing people!  

(Yes "walker readers"  I mean you!)

...

'Chelle ... you're so lucky to be doing sweep van!

Don't get upset with the comments on the SGK Facebook page.  I think everyone who wants a particular assignment should be given the opportunity to do it!  How can anyone get to be an "experienced crew member" if the same "experienced crew members" do the same jobs year after year.

...

Speaking of crew ...

2010 San Francisco crew member extraordinaire Phyllis (not Mr. August, Sarge)

and I will be taking a leisurely stroll on the streets of New York tomorrow.

No long(ish) walk around PW!

Walking in Normal Temps!

The heatwave is over ... for now!

I walked my regular 7 mile (or so) route this morning and didn't feel like the heat would do me in!  I didn't have to look for sprinklers to walk through.  I was actually able to walk more than 4 miles!

The Boston walkers had quite a weekend.  They walked through extreme heat ... and storms ... and they had to cut short their route Friday and Saturday.  But I'm sure they felt the amazing camaraderie shared by thousands of walkers and crew participating in the Susan G. Komen 3-day for the Cure. 

...

I walk past this sign every day.

It's the Roberta Nixon homes ... not the Roberta Harris homes.

I'll just show the "Roberta" ... it's almost like having my name in lights ... well ... on a brick wall.

The end.

First Burt's Babes (and Boys) Training Walk of the Season

Here we are ... 

Training leader Burt and Berta ... together again!

Today I finally made it to a Burt training walk.

The route was Penn Station to Coney Island ... a total of 20-21 miles.

It was cool and misty and, actually, great walking weather.

I made it over the Brooklyn Bridge to the first subway station and said "sayonara" to my fellow walkers.  My doggies were barking.

So ... a little over 9 miles yesterday ... and 10 today ... makes for a good weekend.

Heck ... my virtual trainer says I should be walking 5 miles.

I got my trainer beat!

Meanwhile ... for your viewing pleasure (Sarge) here we are at "Eyes!"

I loved that we had men on our walk! All four men will be walking the 60 miles in various 3-days across the country ... (except for Burt ... he'll be walking 120 miles ... in two 3-days!  Pretty good, Burt!
