Morning all!  Plan is to get a few miles on the trails with Tiny Elvis after work; should have done that yesterday as I think it helps with recovery and soreness.

qotd: I like dark comedies, ie Fargo and well done action dramas, but I watch a pretty a pretty wide range of movies. One of the genera I almost never watch is musicals, maybe have never seen any good ones?

Busy day yesterday. Finally had some sun and temps above 60. Took Baker out to French Creek park for 7 mile trail run. We did a sort of a different route, mixing up the Lenape loop with sections of the Racoon and Buzzards trail. He was so good off leash. A few times I even let him run by a few people off leash (typically I leash him up for encounters) and he followed along perfectly. Crazy packed at the trail heads. Lots were full, cars parked alongside the road. Never seen it like that. Our route turned out pretty good and while we encountered a number of hikers and mountain bikers it wasn't bad. The park is pretty big, over 30 miles of trails. Oh, we ran through Hopewell National Furnace and there was a field of sheep with some brilliant white young babies. Very cute. Baker was curious though he is not a herding breed. Did a few 2 mile dog wogs with the Lady as well so a total of 11 miles yesterday. Plus yardwork (mulching) and mowing. The front beds are all tidied up now.

Today, so far just the usual 2 mile dog wog this morning. Did strength routine today with the dumbbells. I think it's working as last week felt a litle sore in a few spots. I will get the dogs out for 3-4 miles this evening. Something short so I can take the Lady to the trail.

QOTD: Not sure really. Spy, drama, thrillers? I don't watch too much comedy these days other than Curb Your Enthusiasm which is more of a dry/sarcastic sort of humor.

Warden - Great adventure out there this weekend. I likely would have made it a few miles in all that snow and called it quits. LOL. Oh, for a musical may I recommend Spinal Tap. 

Got in a speedy for me lunch run - 4.5 miles.

Warden - such a grand adventure.  It never ceases to maze me how serene the mountains look - especially snow capped.

QOTD: Depends on the day.  I don't really have a preference.

Have a great day!

5.5 miles in the sunshine.  Really nice and warm here today. I tried some of the backyard trails and side roads around our village, one of them leading along the cemetery. There are some very old gravestones there, dating back all the way to deaths in 1837, 1855, 1860, and such. One gravestone stood out to me, of a man born in 1861, died 1962. I was thinking, wow, what an adventure his life must have been, with all the changes during that timespan. Also people born in the 1830’s to 1850’s, who lived through the Civil War and died in the 1900’s. 

moonlight, I hope your knee will allow you to run some again. 

warden, nice adventure!

Taper: Seems like here, people going outside just as before the stay-at-Home order. I also noticed that traffic is almost back to what it used to be. What a difference to 3 weeks ago, when everything was really shut down and dead, even when the weather was nice. Seems people are just getting used to the threat and don’t take the shutdown order seriously any more. 

QOTD: True crime and documentaries, historical stuff, some witty comedies. For a musical, I’d recommend the Rocky Horror Picture Show, original movie. That counts as a musical, right?

FTYC: what a great thing to find on a run! I love waking through cemeteries and reading gravestones. Gravestones lend each life there that is etched  in stone, just a fleeting moment of immortality as strangers walk through.
