We did the Beaver Lake 10k again today, and it was rep. mixt. as for last week, except we had wind and I took my camera. If you're wondering about this sudden urge to go on LONG hikes, it's all part of the "incredible shrinking intertext" project :)

Here's Robsey coming towards me on the path.

no martinis

This sign amused me - "no martinis"? Here in Canada, probably something that looked like beer would be more to the point. And you obviously have to have a clear head so that you can ride your bicycle backwards...

And there were some late-blooming "easter lilies" (erythronium)

Good luck with the shrinking project. I just joined Weight Watchers Online myself.

The mental image of someone strolling up that path with a martini in hand tickled me pink.

HAH! I didn't even notice it was a martini until you pointed it out - I must be the target audience! ;)

Let me know how long hikes do for the "shrinking". Running isn't doing it for me, so maybe I'm trying too hard?

That sign is gold. While I am crestfallen to see that James Bond is prohibited from walking around Beaver Lake, I am heartened to know that at least the bicyclists will be riding forward and thus will be less likely to run over me.
