My husband and I walk every morning together with our dog Lukas. Some mornings are hurried or busy because of work that awaits us when we return. Some are impacted by the sounds of traffic along a busy street. Even so, our morning walks are a source of joy to me. This time with my two favorite mammals is a blessing.

My favorite walks, though, are the quiet ones–usually on a Sunday–when there is little traffic and the sun is shining, but not hot. These walks carry with them a heightened sense of happiness because they allow us to hear the birds and provide time to ease into the day.

I am thankful for quiet morning walks.

What a great way to start the weekend! We raised nearly $1000 for the Arizona Animal Welfare League & SPCA! But our fun didn’t end there. We took a 3-plus mile walk on a sunny day in Tempe, Arizona around Tempe Town Lake with hundreds (thousands?) of others interested in raising money for this excellent no-kill animal shelter. Plus, we got to see lots and lots of adorable dogs! Life doesn’t get much better than that.

For all that fun and goodness, I want to thank the people who sponsored us on this walk! Because of you, our team of three brought in a boatload of cash for an excellent cause. All the money goes toward all the upkeep it takes for caring for rescued animals: medical expenses, building maintenance, food, supplies, you name it! It’s not cheap to keep the animals safe and healthy, but you all DID IT!…
