While in California I walked quite a bit but by evening I could barely move because of my bad knee. I did not walk as much as you did though.

Now I walk with you, virtually.Vagabondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10774109692564954568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-11828480012830187102010-06-25T04:11:22.053-07:002010-06-25T04:11:22.053-07:00Can one live out a retirement dream any better tha...Can one live out a retirement dream any better than this?

It sounds hard to go from summer to winter and back to summer within a matter of hours. I like to ski, but snowshoes would make me feel like a klutz. Do they respond to digging in the edges? It must be like a tennis racket on your feet.R.
