Woke up this morning with a fresh covering of snow, warm and sunny, 1 Celsius so off for a quick jaunt around the lake loop as we call it. In November of 2009 I was diagnosed with diabetes, and as part of our exercise routine to get it under control we started walking. We would walk up to Crawley Lake, St. Peter's water supply. Once the ice froze we ventured out and walking along the lake we found a maze of 4 wheeler trails. Eventually after walking and exploring the trails we started to follow a route that brought us in a loop past the lake and down Carter's road back out to the West Bay Highway. When the lake is frozen we cross the West Bay Highway and out onto the Bras d'or Lake. We walk along the Lake to the bottom of James Rd, the street we live at the top of. Since there isn't a bit of ice on the Lake we have to settle for a jaunt on the side of the road back home, which isn't quite as peaceful or tranquil as a walk on the ice. The local dog population likes to come out and "greet" Caoimhe, and there is no sidewalk so the traffic has to be watched. Once we get some ice I'll add the full portion of the walk that we take out on the ice.
