Twenty-Five years ago I started walking year-round with my Mom. During the spring and fall months we like to walk 4-5 times a week. During the winter and hot summer months we go out 3-4 times a week. It’s a nice way to spend time together while getting some exercise and fresh air.
Last month we took a 15 minute drive to a place called the Boyer House. It’s a historic house that has been around for over a century. They turned the house and property into a little outdoor park. You’ll find a paved and unpaved walking trail, and a little parking lot on the premises.
A lot of nearby families like to go there to walk and have a little bit of outdoor fun. It’s also a hot spot for people who are looking to get family photos, engagement pictures, senior & graduation photos, etc. It’s a beautiful little area right outside of the city.
Nature is so beautiful even during the wintertime with or without snow on the ground. When walking outside you do need to be careful of slip and falls. We only go out when the weather permits and always with each other. Walking alone is never a good thing.
In my post today you’ll find a few photographs from our walk and visit to the historic Boyer House. We’ll be going back again in the late spring to see all of the flowers and trees in bloom. I bet that its gorgeous too!
Looks like a lovely place to walk. I’m lucky that I live half a block from a lake that is exactly one mile around. It’s fun all year round.
I too like to walk to enjoy nature. This looks like a wonderful place to visit I would so love to see it in the springtime.
Beautiful picture of the pump I would like to see it again in the spring. We have rail trails around this area. One goes along the river in the summer spring etc it is really beautiful
I walk with friends several times a week all year long. It is usually around the neighborhood but every so often we get in the car and find different place to do our walk and talk time. Looks like you found a beautiful place for your walk.
That is so pretty. I am glad you have such nice places to walk around.
