Oct 3 - Day 1 Walk along Delaware Bay

Cape Henlopen State Park, Lewes Delaware
I woke up bright and early at 10:00 am. (hey, this is my retirement and after all these years of working, I'm gonna get out of bed when I am darn good and ready). It's 65 today here in Delaware (in Green Bay where I'm really walking its 5:30 pm and about 68). I walked 2.84 miles (geez, get off my case, I'm still working you know, my walking time is limited. I do the best I can). Anyway, back to my dream. I started at the Atlantic Ocean, just to the right of the bunker overlook. I left the overlook, passing the picnic pavilion and turned left onto Park road, then right onto the bike path. I left the park on Henlopen Drive and walked up to the corner of Savannah Rd (US 9 business), the main road in Lewes. Tony and Andrew graciously answered my phone call and raced to pick me up and treat me to lunch. On this trip, like on a cruise, I'm going to eat like a pig. But, unlike my cruise vacations of past, I am going to lose weight on this adventure (I hope!). After lunch, back to the camper. My cabana boy came over with a strawberry margarita, followed by the masseuse and my little pedicure lady. (I'm pretty sure my feet aren't too calloused yet, since I've only gone not quite 3 miles, but better to be safe then sorry. Got to keep those tootsies comfy, no feetsie no walkie).

Finished today’s Book on tape: “Secrets of Eden” by Christopher A Bohjalian. Description: A novel of complex emotions and marvelous twists and turns, Secrets of Eden begins with an apparent murder suicide, which rocks a small town and a family to its core.  Ann’s rating: C+
