New Years Eve day was a delightful day to do some walking, we had to hit a couple of the walks to update the information in the "walk box" and to see what, if anything, was needed to make these walking experiences more enjoyable and as stress free as possible. Everything appeared to be in order, so left our updates and went on our way. Highlands Hammock State Park campground was full to capacity, the picnic area was teaming with people and the "circle" had some activity as well, some bikes, some walking and some strollers. Some folks decided this was just a time to do just plain relaxing. Everyone was having a great time and the weather was just perfect.
Then on to Venice, update the walk box at the CVS at Venice Ave and US41 and a little tour of the walk route and Venice Beach, what a lovely walk that is. Some of the charm of the City of Venice and some of the historic parts and then on to the beach and the jetty. Water (Gulf of Mexico) was kind of choppy, but for the most part was very pretty, altho' a little windy. Lots of people checking it out and walking on the jetty. Some boats in the water and even a dolphin or two. Turned out to be a lovely day, really enjoyed it.
The link above will take you to the American Volkssport Association website and then choose a link from the column on the left, find a state and then a walking event and go for it. These walks make for a very enjoyable day and a healthy one too.
See you on the trail.....
Those who wander are not always lost!!!
