Take a Hike

 Saturday was solar eclipse day,
but we had a cloudy day and were not able to see it.

Saturday was also men's prayer breakfast at church.
Prayer breakfast is at 7.
So we need to leave at 6.
So we sit down to Bible study at 5.
So prayer breakfast days mean we get up like a normal work day.
Because of this, it is sometimes hard to get motivated to support it ...
... but we try to "habit stack."

We link another activity with it.
Last time we had a prayer breakfast,
hubby finished the prayer meeting and we went to the greenway right near the church.

This time, we planned to go to the Greenway in "local" Springfield, TN.
We had hiked it last year on October 15.
It was a warmer day, and I was still recuperating from surgery and lugging around a new cast.
This year, though not as sunny, was more pleasant.


The path is marked in 1/4 miles.
We hiked the 3-mile path out,
wandered Springfield a bit,
hiked the 3-mile path back,
and then enjoyed a lovely picnic lunch in the park at the trail head
(well it was lovely to be together, but it was a bit cold).

About the time we sat to eat,
it got quite dark behind the clouds,
so I think that we did experience a bit of the eclipse :)
