The heat is upon us - rather oppressively so this week, I must say. I hate to complain, but I wish we could store it up for those cold January mornings.
We've managed to walk our 10-15 K's most days this summer, but we've found it easier to get up early and be home by 8:00 or 9:00. That way we at least start out in bearable temperatures.
Our eldest works as a chambermaid/breakfast attendant at a local motel, for the summer months, and has to be to work for 6:15, so we take her, park the van and walk from there. It has been a good way to vary the scenery. Today we took the scenic walking trail, along the St. Lawrence.

Just a nice front yard at the start of the walk |

The entrance to the railway tunnel. It actually runs under several blocks of the city and comes out at the north end, but is closed due to safety reasons. |

I hope you enjoyed it, half as much as we did, without the sweat or deer flies.
And that is about all I have to say for today.

What a neat place to walk. Fun. I know you would prefer sand and Joshua Trees, right. :-)
