Day 112 - Rainbow without rain

Took a big loop through Milton this morning. Down to Triangle Park and then up and around Surprise Lake and home again. It is definitely getting colder, and as I found later in the day, wetter. We had an HOA meeting at Discovery Primary School this evening, to which I decided to walk. It is over by Surprise Lake Middle School, so close to a two mile walk. I left early enough to get over there by 7:00. Luckily, I had swapped out my fleece hoodie for a waterproof one. Even though I hadnt expected rain as I left, about 5 minutes in, it started coming down. Just a sprinkling, but enough to start soaking through the shoes. It held solid like that until I got to the school - at that point, it promptly stopped. Such is life.
Odd thing was, on my way out of the neighborhood, and before it even started raining, I saw this rainbow to the North of us.

The walk back from the meeting was quite dark, but the Milton neighborhoods I was walking through were not highly trafficked, so it wasnt too bad. It also wasnt raining the whole time, so that was nice as well.

Nosh N Walk: Week 49

#millersnoshnwalk week 49: We had the pleasure of hanging out with the Scurvy Dogs Book Club on the last day of the month. We had some trouble getting the gang together this month, but squeaked by on 2/28 to keep our streak alive! Going into our 11th year of the book club, we have met every month and have now read 129 books. This past month we read The Lincoln Highway, by Amor Towles, it was a good read. We met up at BBQ Pete’s and had some fantastic BBQ and invited the Scurvy Wives. I had a prime rib dip sandwich and LeAnn had the ‘Sandwich with No Name’ - sliced brisket, cheese and crispy onion straws. They even had free soft serve ice cream cones! So good.

While on my Journey to complete walking 24,901 miles of #ToddlingAroundTheEquator, I am focusing these walks on the amazing missionaries that I know that are serving around the world. I am dedicating walking a marathon of miles for these missionaries and tag them as #missionarymarathons. I am so grateful to these faithful missionaries for dedicating their lives to teaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ! This week I have walked 26.2 miles for Sister Dummer, who is serving in our Ward. We have had the privilege of having her over to our house for lessons and for dinner. It has been great to get to know her and see her beautiful smile and the love she has for the Gospel. She has been in the mission now for almost a month, and I can tell she is going to help change so many lives for the better as a missionary!

I am so grateful to these faithful missionaries for dedicating their lives to teaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ! These past few weeks I have walked 150.4 miles for Elder Brendan Murphy, who is my nephew. (Gotta go a few extra marathons for my family!) I decided to walk the distance between the first two Cities he has served in in Finland, Turku and Lahti. Brendan is a special man, with a beautiful smile. He is intelligent, kind and thoughtful. It has been a privilege to watch him grow up and become such a man who is now serving the Lord with all his heart, might, mind and strength. It is an honor to be his uncle. Here is a bit more about Elder Murphy, so you can get to know more about him and why h...
