End of August

Last week of summer (at least unofficially)!

Got out Tuesday afternoon for a short road loop, with a short stretch on the powerlines. Reasonably cool. Nice to not be sweaty immediately. Viburnum berries are turning blush colored. (6.0 miles)

Wednesday was an after dinner walk around the school walk with Ryan. Nice out. (2.6 miles walked)

Thursday, I got out at 5:30 am for a run along the edge of the Heath. Pretty morning with a pastel sky, low fog and six deer seen. (6.0 miles)

Friday, I got out mid morning for a run on the powerlines. Humid! (8.0 miles)

Then while Ryan and I were working, Sam headed out with Mom and Dad for some driving time and a fun lunch down at Five Islands. Yum, and a beautiful afternoon for it!

Ryan and I got out for an after dinner walk a little before 7:00 pm. Breezy but very humid. And boy it is that time of year when the light starts to fade fast earlier and earlier. (2.6 miles walked)

Saturday, I got some work done and a few things crossed off the home to-do list and then Sam and I headed down to Portland for her to get a third piercing in her ears as an early birthday present. Looks great! Then it was home for a late lunch and I finally got out for a run down into the Cathance around 3:30 pm. Of course, after being lovely all day, I got rained on out there. Classic 😆💦 But then lovely as I wandered back on the powerlines. (8.0 miles)

Sunday was a 9:00 am wander out along the Heath, on the powerlines and out to the Androscoggin. Bright and warm in the sun, but cool in the shade. Just wandering along. Three deer and six turkey. (12.0 miles)

Wrapped up the weekend with a yummy dinner at Mom and Dad's. And now it is onto September!
