I love to hike at any time of day but you shouldn't get out for a noon hike in Florida during the summer months! It's too HOT!
I don't count my evening walks around the neighborhood as hikes but I like to walk over to the pond every few days. (on days I don't hike)
I stood in the driveway to see these colorful clouds at sundown.
And then I walked over to the pond after the sun went down to take advantage of a cooling breeze.
No matter when you walk, you're sure to see something interesting.
I hiked the Florida Trails the following morning.
The woods had held the overnight air and it was surprisingly cool!
(stickers on a car I parked next to, except for the birding sticker that I parked next to at HTP a few days before)
I know most of you are younger than I am so I'll tell you what I tell my boys. Exercise some every day NOW because the older you get, the harder it becomes. I absolutely LOVE to walk and hike but I can't take the long walks and strenuous hikes that I enjoyed when I was younger. And I mean....just 10 years younger than I am now! (Our hiking now is limited to easier trails and around 2 hours or less.) So get out there and see all the interesting sights that nature has to offer and stay in shape. You'll be so glad you did....when you get older!
Anything you want to add in your comments? I'd love to know how you stay healthy and 'in shape'! We're never too old to learn something new!
I'm linking with All Seasons at the Jesh Studio too!
