Week End

Running is going well. Did a 5.6 mile jaunt with the hubby on Thursday and it felt great. Went for a nice long bike ride on Saturday (With same said Hubby). Started at the top of the beltline trail, went through Mt pleasant cemetery, down the moor park ravine and into the Don Valley Brick works. It was there that we encountered the first of the damage done by last Fridays storm. A Sea of mud stretched under the canopy of the brick works. We found out that the base of the bayveiw extension was closed because of the flooding and so we nipped up the extension to get to the Don Valley trail. More damage there, Seas of mud and small lakes across the trail to peddle though, bridges that had debris strewn across them from the water rising so high.

Frightening how powerful nature can be. We ran into my sister in law on the trail and went to St. Lawrence Market for lunch – which was a grand idea, as Hubby and I were so covered in mud and sweat that no civilized restaurant would have us. Had a long overdue chat with sister in-law, that was good for clearing up the air.

A nice day at the Renaissance Fair on Sunday.
