8r4d Friday is a tough day for a #running streak run if only because A we just ran last night and B I’ve usually got stuff going on in the evening so I need to do an afternoon or even a morning run. Today was one of those even a morning run, so I drove somewhere different and did some loops in a nearby neighborhood to add to my gauntlet. Nicely I got that awesome #rivervalley drop off view a couple times.

adventuredog For the third day in a row we’re back at the little lake enjoying the peace and quiet of the #birdsong and #morning sunshine. We’re mostly in the company of red winged blackbirds nesting in the, as far as I can see, though there are some other random songbirds and a few ducks on the water. #birdwatching

8r4d Heres we go again. Is half past ten at night and the road paving crew just showed up to repave the street. Good luck sleeping tonight. #construction #city

8r4d We ran early this Thursday because wouldn’t you know it but the local hockey dudes are skipping their regular golf season and playing deeper into the playoffs than expected, so folks apparently want to watch it. We did a 9k #running tour of a southerly neighbourhood, the same place where RM and I ran a couple weeks back while hunting for beavers. This makes for 23 days in a row, by the way.

8r4d The dog and I are enjoying the morning #soundscape of #birdsong by the suburban lake near our walking route. This morning I tried using my field recorder to capture some cleaner clips than my phone’s voice recorder can manage. The pup rolled around in the wet grass.

8r4d Day twenty-two of this old #running streak turned into a bit of a local safari. The regular Wednesday #runclub hit our 7k out and back and met a little #moose on the trail. I figured the pouring rain that deluged us up to a few minutes before we set off would be our biggest story, but alas the real big story was a big old #animal sighting.

castironguy It’s that season again… when I can make #bbq for my lunch and enjoy the backyard.

8r4dsfeets Oh #spring it must be pollen season huh?

adventuredog We went for a walk this morning and sat down by the lake listening to the birds.

8r4dsfeets It’s been a bit wet around here. #spring huh?

8r4d Once again our street is home to some late night shenanigans. Why the #city decided that #construction on our particular road needs to happen overnight in the wee hours of the sleeping hours and not, say, during a sane time when they’re not waking us all up, is beyond me. Yet, here we are… and no, this is not minor roadwork. They are ripping up sheets of asphalt with a backhoe and heavy equipment, likely looking to repave soon (by which I mean around 3am!)

8r4d On day 21 of my #running streak I yet again found myself knocking of some streets in T Towne, winding and looping and crossing of a list of connectors I’d missed on my previous go rounds. There was the threat of rain but the air is a bit warmer.
