While my wife was away at a home health care aid meeting and it was a sunny warm day, I went for a hike over the Paw Paw Tunnel and decided to take y'all with me.

Thanks for the hike, hope we weren't too heavy to carry up that hill!

Snubby-- been there and done that-- my Molly girl was a pup then. She got up on the side of the tunnel and was afraid to come down. Had to go get Her. That was some years back. I lost her in 2008 on Her 17th birthday. Thanks for some good memories. She never lost a bird--

Ahhhhh. Goooood time getting caught up.

I think armadillos are cute. I have a beany babie armadillo.
Somewhere.
It's keeping company with the errant socks, I bet.

Oh, cool. I just realized tomorrow is Friday.
Think I'll get a BIY pizza. That's Bake-It-Yourself.
Not Bacon-IceCream-Yam.
Or Buffalo-IrishCoffee-Yak.

Would that be redundant? Buffalo and Yak?
Kinda like having meatballs and hamburger on your pizza?
Hmmmmm.

It's later than I thought. My feet hurt. Not that has anything to do with it being late.
But I will say, it is time to get my aching feet in bed.
And the rest of me too.
Night-night, Drifters.
If I don't "see" y'all, have a great weekend.

P.S. How do you tell you've italicized spaces?

That was cool, thanks. Guess I'll have to have a little snort of Southern Comfort, only for medicinal purpose, to help my knees and hip feel better after the hike you just took us on. I have to carry Arthur and Itis everywhere I go and they like it. Do it again this spring, bet it's really pretty then.

Hoping to catch the Big Savage Tunnel on the Allegheny Passage over the summer ...it's closed November to April.........its 3,300 ft long........at 2400 ft it's close to the highest point on the trail and sits astride the Eastern Continental Divide.......

Nice hike, my knee's are killing me, after burning off all those calories, I think it's time to get something to eat.

I can tell I'm heavier than I was last year. If I keep hiking, I'll work that winter weight off.
That first section is steep.
Sorry to hear about your loss.
Yup, got it in both my knees. Can't push it like I used to.
You gave me an idea, I'll make a playlist of hikes through the year.
We're gonna get more biking in this year too.
That carb. window's wide open. Need to put something in it.
Like I tell people, "deep breaths, don't pant like a dog."
It really does help.
