Guess who walked 13 miles on the holiday Monday. This girl! (And The Husband.) We had planned on just walking down to Roosevelt Island and hiking around the island for a bit (5.5 miles). We did do that, but we then tacked on walking from Roosevelt Island to the Tenleytown neighborhood of DC for a tasty Mexican lunch and errands (4.5 more miles). We then walked 3 more miles home. It was a jam packed day but the weather was too pretty to be inside.
One thing I love about DC is that we can, generally, walk almost everywhere. The Husband and I consider walking distance to be anything within 3 miles, but if the weather is good we'll basically walk everywhere. It's great for the health but it does do a number on my shoes. I've walked holes into many of them.

- Work
- It's been a while since I posted about this, but I'm slowing working my way through Digital Imaging. It's turning out to be quite useful as I draft our plans for a digitization program.
- Magazines
- HGTV, October 2017 - This issue had pretty pictures. That's about it.
- Food Network, October 2017 - I generally love it when the fall issues of food magazines come out. They are full of comforting casseroles, soups, and stews. This issue had a few nice looking recipes of that sort, but I most enjoyed the features on tailgate snacks and Halloween party themed foods. I might be able to use some of those (with a few festive tweaks) for our annual Christmas party.
- Books
- I'm still reading Feral. The writing is very good and so is the narrative, but man does it take me forever to get through non-fiction. I'm aiming to finish this before we go on vacation at the end of the month.
