A good year – 2018 – day 198

First work day of the working week for me. Bit of trouble walking with the blisters, but luckily have a selection of shoes.  So I hobbled into work and dealt with the day. After work went and sorted out the BVRT Trek4DQ finances.  Once sorted it was home, do some bible study and off to … Continue reading A good year – 2018 – day 198

Woke to a very cold morning, at 4.30 am. I am so pumped for the second day’s walk.  After removing the ice from the car it was time to drive to Esk.

Once showered, dressed and … Continue reading A good year – 2018 – day 194

Today is the day! Spent the morning packing and getting the gear together for the BVRT Trek 4 DQ 2018. This meant thinking about three full days of walking and to combat blisters, cramps and knee problems; and enough layers for the cold mornings. Therefore more socks, and jumpers. With the car packed, headed off … Continue reading A good year – 2018 – day 193

Wet day to behold! A work day and am impressed with the work I am completing. Due to the wet, the lunchtime walk was cancelled, so spent the period in the building. Went home late due to the weather, and came to a warm, dry home. More work on the BVRT Trek 4 DQ and … Continue reading A good year – 2018 – day 187
