Warm And Sunny Sunday Afternoon/ We Go To Maymont Park
Beth and I had company this weekend but after everyone left we headed for the park to get some exercise and talk about our Spring vacation. We have two weeks to relax and get out of town this time of year. And for the second time in two years we have made plans to visit our nation’s capitol as well as Virginia Beach.
We talked about starting an exercise and dieting program because we have kind of let things go over the winter. I realized that I need to do it not just for myself but for her as well. And she’s probably not going to do it unless I do it.
It’s a strange circle and one we need to break up. So it’s going to be a “working vacation” in a sense. Of course, you can walk your buns off in Washington DC without any problem. But going out to dinner every night and having the opportunity to dine on fabulous cuisine will offer some challenges. We may have to start that part of the program after we get back.
So it was warm and breezy today and we walked all over Maymont Park. They have a new exhibit area with some great birds on display. The eagles are awesome. The hawks have beautiful feathers.
And we spent some time enjoying three baby goats. Beth said it was one of the cutest things she has ever seen. They were having a great time and the crowd was enjoying them too.
So we walked and walked. The bears were busy sleeping and I would never have seen them if Beth has not pointed them out up in the rocks.
Lots of folks were throwing balls and someone had set up the game with the little hoops and mallets. What’s it called? You hit a ball around the lawn and try to be the first one to get back to the beginning where there is a small pole driven into the ground.
Anyway there were people doing that and lots of cameras around. Photography seems to be an ever more popular hobby from the number of SRL cameras I see in my travels.
