As usual today was my big hiking day and after breakfast I set out on a route that I knew a little but a bit of a mystery tour
on the street outside my casita I saw this pooch
he was having a back rub..
…..I had lots of food and drinks and my music so I walked on the side of the highway for 4 km
this weekend in San Miguel is going to be a bit crazy huge celebrations for the Arch Angel san Miguel and I think this man is on his way to town.
and then onto the side gravel roads…the fall flowers are quite lovely
I was enjoying myself so no one
After about 9 km I came in to the little village I was aiming for and saw the most unusual site outside the local church
there was no one around so funny!!!
After the village I knew where I was heading about 8 km along a paved and then gravel path to another small village saw some animals along the way
Then the photo of the day!!!
Just saw her parents pushing her down the road asked for permission to take her photo and she was so sweet and she also got some gum from me…
The high level of the river after the recent heavy rains.
I have no idea what these folks were doing a long way from anywhere
Glad I did not meet this guy when he was alive
I ordered a safety bracelet a couple of weeks ago and it arrived yesterday so wear it when I go off into the wilderness on my own…..has my name , age and three friend’s phone numbers listed and then the quote which I stole from Nike Corperation…’JUST DO IT”…..just a safety precaution…
Well I was gone 6 hours and I reckon I walked about 28 km and I enjoyed it but a little tired and iced down the knees as a precaution
The end of an era!!!!
My shoes are done!!!!
What a journey for these shoes since 2011 they have crossed the breadth of the USA into Newfoundland and Labrador…down the Eastern sea board of the USA…took a cruise to Bermuda and then into Mexico and last year they went to 17 Countries in Europe..so they are well travelled and served me so well!!!
Tonight I went to Carolyn's for pea soup which was really good we were going to watch a movie but I was too tired….better get a good rest supposed to play tennis tomorrow but it just rained so hard…wish you all a great weekend.
Yashi Koshi!!

Re previous comment - you now have a "sitemeter" that counts visitors to your site above your name and About Me at the top of the blog. Now it seems when anyone clicks on any blog that has this widget it activates to try to get you to install it on your computer/blog to. We are forced to either install it or cancel to opt out. It is a pain. We do not want it. Bad marketing on that companies part if you ask me......B
sorry cannot answer this cheers les
It's appearing on all our blogs.
Great hike you made. Long, I bet tomorrow you're laying low and relaxing. Great pics!!!!

You would be safe around that snake Les. It is a Corn Snake or 'Rat Snake", venom-less and harmless. They will bite if they are harassed or cornered but are otherwise harmless (unless you are a rat).
The annoying Sitemeter popup is a fault in Internet Explorer and can be avoided by using Chrome or Firefox.
