Moreen and I went for another walk today and we may have taken it too far. She drove to the house and we walked from here down to Willingdon Beach – a relatively good walk. From there we walked the Willingdon Beach Trail (the Mighty Machine Trail to my grandchildren). But we didn’t stop there. We continued on to see the sea lions out by the hulks and the mill. We could have turned around but we decided to carry on into Townsite. We wandered around the market that has recently opened (the one with the climbing wall). When it was time to go home there were no alternatives to going back the way we came. The last climb up the hill to home was tough but we kept telling ourselves it was good for us. We decided our next walk won’t be quite so strenuous; we were out about three hours.

I needed to pick up some groceries so, while I was out, I made a drop at the High School on behalf of the Guild, picked up some keys at Cranberry Hall, mailed a letter and then got to the groceries.

I limped upstairs (I’m going to be sore tonight) and fixed the corner on my Farmer’s Wife quilt. It didn’t work out perfectly but I’m at a loss as to why not but it is better than it was and it is good enough.

After I peel some potatoes for supper I’ll start getting ready for my sewing retreat starting tomorrow afternoon.
