The Valentine’s Day strawberry selections were crazy!

I passed on these, but enjoyed the variety and colors :)

Zoe and I had a great time.

We didn't know there was a water fall or suspension bridge on the Caesar's Creek trails.  We also earned a healthy heart day badge we didn't know existed.  Better yet, I managed the 3+ miles in spite of my past knee issues.  I've worked out a combo of strengthening, exercise and supplements that seems to be working well and I've seen a lot of improvement over the last several months and still getting better every week.

All this let me score the max points in the day and spurred me on to a rare victory over Jewels for the week 😈

More flow over the icy waterfall

 

We crossed a wiggly suspension bridge 🤪

Enjoy the flowing winter waterfall

Just more winter beauty at Caesar’s Creek

The lake froze over completely this year.  That only happens about once a decade or so!

Julie quickly noted the frozen polar bear…!

I have to admit, I can't unsee it once she pointed it out! Hahaha.  Now go back and look at my previous post and see it there too. 🤪

I went on a heart healthy hike last weekend

Waynesville and the ODNR coordinated a 3 mile hike starting at Pioneer Village on Valentine's Day. Zoe and I went along.  We hiked out to the waterfalls and flat rock face fork and enjoyed nature and the scenery along the way!

Fun collecting the whole set!

The cyclones handed out packs of five trading cards a couple weeks ago.  Then the trading began! Some folks just gave away their packs.  Some of us randomly roamed the arena, and still others of us posted up and Facebook and connected at future games.  In the end, I managed to get a complete 30 card set and didn't even have to front any cash. In fact I got a few helpings of nachos and other treats out of the deals.  The bets part is I made a handful of new hockey fan friends in the process.  

The dogs are always ready for the next adventure…❤️

David?!

This is about the most David kind of watch band and case I could possibly find for my Apple Watch, hahahaha.  On brand!

My current mood! :)

What do you do when you don’t have a job?!

CELEBRATE!

Ironically, we were being treated to dinner out on Cognex the same day they laid me off! 🤪 They'd given out gift cards at Christmas so we had made reservations at Flemming's to celebrate Valentine's Day. The timing worked out perfectly.  Under the circumstances, we decided a sugar treat was called for! YUM!!

I think Chloe’s getting comfortable around us ;)
