Walking in the rain

I did my workout after work today - it's my cardio day, and this week I'm mixing things up from the same old elliptical routine, and incorporating a walk/jog routine as well.

It started to rain just as I left the house - a light, cool rain. As I walked, the scent of wet grass and soil reminded me of the walks I used to take with my Grandmother when I was growing up. I thought about her for a while, feeling happy and sad at the same time.

Then I found a new path that connects two parks together that are on opposite sides of the neighborhood. As long as I've lived here, I never knew it was there. I felt like quite the little explorer, geeked as I was.

It was really nice. I should take Gypsy with me to work off her Tootsie Roll gut. Except that she's been doing that reverse sneeze thing again lately, so that'll have to wait.
