Missed Y'All! Ginny's Improved, and I'm Back in the Rain.

I've been away for 10 days, and it seems like an eternity.  Thanks for all your contacts and comments; Ginny's getting stronger every day, and I've missed each of you and Active Rain. 

This post is included in the group Active Rain Fit Club and Walking By Faith In The Rain!, because members of these two groups have been particularly encouraging.  I've been walking and taking photos.  As of this evening, I've walked 46 miles since the beginning of the month, and I'm more fit than I've been in years.  Thanks for your encouragement!

Setting full moon at the beginning of May

Saturday morning a week ago (the 9th) we had a full moon, and early dawn found it setting in the west.  Without a tripod, this was the best I could do, but it gives you an idea of the beauty of the early morning desert landscape.

Okay.  Now to catch up on my reading and commenting in the Rain...  :)

It'll be good to catch up with you.

Mike,

You got back just in time, I normally let folks rest for a couple of weeks before I start giving them a call.

Glad that you are back sir.

Hey Mike, didn't realize that Ginny was so ill.. I knew that you had mentioned her not feeling well right after you got back from Oklahoma.  Hope the Oklahoma trip wasn't what got to her.  Glad things are better.

Mike - I am so glad you have surfaced, and that your Darlin' is improved.  I almost called at one point, fearing her condition had worsened.  This is such good news!  Oh by the way - GREAT picture!

Myrl,

We're still concerned, but not quite so much.  Thanks for commenting!

Judi,

Thanks so much for your call; maybe if we'd stayed in Oklahoma...  LOL

Laura,

The walking has done me good!  Thanks for commenting.

Terry,

You're very welcome!  It's good to be back.

Don,

It's people like you who make AR such a wonderful community!

Lenn,

It's so good to be back; Ginny says "Hi" and thanks you for your concern.  See you on your blog.

Mike,

It's like I fell off a cliff!  LOL

Ann,

Way to go on that 3.5 miles!  I'm walking in the evenings now because it's getting hot!  Ginny says "Hi."

So glad to see Ginny is improving.  Looks like you are really enjoying getting fit!  Are you tracking the inches lost?  Firming up the mus-cles will do that ya know!

Hey Brother Mike - I sure do love that moon shot.  Keep up the good work walking... it's not only good for you, but it's a good quiet time.

JD,

As of last night, 57.5 miles for the month of May.  It really is quiet time, especially when hiking in the moonlight.

Doreen,

The inches are coming off as well; I'm down to the next-to-last notch on my belt!

Teri,

It's good to see you back.

Donna,

The more I walk, the easier it gets!

Karen,

Thanks for stopping by to comment.  I'm looking for a tripod on Craigslist.  (I'm cheap.)

The more I walk, the easier it gets.  I track my mileage on my Blackberry using the GPS function and some third party software.
