May 17

Today I had a lot of groceries to get so I wore the backpacking backpack.  I did my usual bear crawl in the grass and playing at the playground on the way to the store.  On the way back, loaded down with groceries, it felt like I was backpacking, and that felt great!  

I had no yard chores or bike rides, just an evening walk of 1-1.3 miles.  My fitbit says 22,300 steps.  My goal is 25000 but I'm satisfied with this.

It was blustery with the possibility of rain.  It did catch me in my last few blocks, but I consider that pretty lucky.

I stopped at the library to use the bathroom.  I saw this display and thought, wow, I wish they had this when I was a kid!
