It’s been a few weeks since I’ve posted. I’ve been doing much of the same, going to the Y, hiking, cycling, playing games with groups, socializing, and cooking. There’s a class at the Y called shapes. It’s a combination of power yoga, Pilates, and barre. It was a love-hate relationship at first, because it’s quite tough. I’ve tried almost all of the classes at the Y and this is the only one that made my muscles sore afterwards. It’s getting easier. Here are a few pics from some of my activities…


I follow a guy on Facebook named James Bok. He’s Korean and I love his recipes. I recently prepared the bok choy Kimchi. It’s so easy and delicious!


Yesterday, I hiked with a new group to see four waterfalls. It was fun! Love the exercise! Some of them went swimming.


I have a few mini trips planned. I’ll be driving to Cincinnati to visit my brother and his wife in early September. And I’ll be driving 4 hours to Charleston where I’ll spend two nights and then I’ll spend one night in Charlotte, North Carolina on the way back. I haven’t been to Charleston for 14 years and Charlotte for 22 years. In mid-october, I’ll spend one night in Blowing Rock, North Carolina and then one night in the Smokies. Summer is winding down, and I’m looking forward to Autumn, it’s my favorite season!
