What a fun hike today!  Four TOWNies and four pups:  Jacque with Sheba, KathleenC with Baby & Mamie, KimW, and MaryVE with Rosie.  It was chilly and overcast as we started, but sunny and a bit warmer as we finished.  We walked 3.2 miles in 90 minutes and talked non-stop or almost!  MaryVE decided the dogs are walking/running close to 10 miles.  Topics discussed included:  traveling to Gulf Shores, Alpine, Marathon, Big Bend, and Cleburne – we stayed closer to home today; our monthly meeting last night and how to manage camping for four months; how many dogs and cats a person should have; what to do with shirts and shoes too large to wear; why Marathon is so attractive and where people stay; why some young folks can climb trees and are so agile; why pet sitters make such a difference when we travel; how to begin keeping bees and how bees can be removed from between walls.  Pretty exciting stuff huh!  I look forward to the Wednesday, Turkey Creek Hike every week and hiking with these TOWNies!  Come join us!  Jacque
