Sunday 1-29 Hiking Pepper Creek Trail

Pepper Creek Trail in Temple

What a spectacular day. It started out cool and only got up the high 60's. We really didn't have anything pressing to do. Larry asked if I wanted to go for a walk. We decided to go to Temple and walk the Pepper Creek Trail. We haven't done much walking on the trails in the area in a long time, we used to frequently walk the local trails and always took Flo along but when she was no longer able to hike we quit going. Our hike started out with a north wind that made it cold but by the end we had removed our jackets. We had a great hike. Larry had read that the City of Temple was adding on to the trail so when we finished the hike we drove around to see what improvement they were doing. The only thing we saw was that Temple had added on a little more concrete to the trail on the other side of Airport Blvd. By the time we got back it was time for lunch so I cooked up some soup for lunch.

After lunch Larry worked on a music project. I cleaned the interior of the Minnie and reloaded some items I had removed. Flo kept me company. When we finished our projects we watched a few episodes of the GizWiz that we missed when we were in the valley. We still have a couple more to watch.

In the evening we watched a few shows off of Amazon. The first show was Mr. Church, it starred Eddie Murphy and no, it was not a comedy, it was a drama about an unique friendship between a little girl and her dying mother and a cook that they retained. It was a good movie. The next show was Less Is More: How to Live with Less. It was a documentary about living with the minimum amount of stuff. Not the best documentary bu we enjoyed seeing how people were happier without a lot of stuff by choice. The last show was David Hockney: A Bigger Picture. This was another documentary on an artist David Hockney. It was a very impressive show on he how creates his paintings. We had a very relaxing evening.
