Finally got outside yesterday for a good while. Walked all the way up to the park and met Mr. Wilson at the top of the reservoir. What do you figure, about 5 miles? Not very much, but when you've been sitting in front of the computer for a couple years it feels pretty good. A little stiff today, but not as bad as I feared.
I love walking in the city. I didn't have a particular direction in mind when I set out. I was just walking in a straight line, and then when I'd come to a Don't Walk I would choose either left or right and continue straight until the next Don't Walk. Pretty fun. I ended up just west of Columbus Circle before I abandoned that plan.
Come on spring time...
Sounds great. Maybe I'll go sniff the air. If I can make it to NYC for a visit this spring, would the local dmtree contingent be interested in getting together for a BYO-Sandwich, picnic/walk in the park?
I'm sure we could scare something up. Definitely let us know when you come down.
Almost exactly five miles as the crow flies; you probably walked six over all. I did almost that going back and forth in the Park.
I’m always encouraging people to come up there, and we’ve had a few memorable group adventures (remember the bat, and the lost beeper?), although most folks balk at my practice of getting there at dawn…
