W for Walks and Walking

 

Since we moved to the Hill Country, we have done a lot of walking. During the Covid time, when the reality was so depressing and life was on hold, we walked in the countryside every day. Luckily, in Texas, there was no ban on walking. To beat the heat on hot summer days, we started our walks about sunrise. 

 

 

We walked for 1,5 to 2 hours along country roads, where we met nobody but animals.

 

The pretty landscapes, nature, and its sounds were calming to the mind and soul. Looking at it all, the fields, flowers, listening to the birds, we could forget about all the badness that was going on in the world.

 

Physically, we did get tired and strained our joints a bit, but it was worth it. The area we live in is so beautiful.
