My Actifit Report Card: February 10 2019
Today I went for a walk down by the bay for around 8500 steps. The wind was still very cold especially as we were walking into it. This has been the snowiest February around here in 70 years from what I’ve seen in the newspaper headlines.
We saw a great many eagles, hawks, seagulls and other birds.

Things have changed a lot there just while I’ve been alive – they don’t get nearly as much snow now.
My dad used to tell me stories of the snowstorms that they used to get when he was a child. Several feet of snow could blow in overnight trapping the cabin door closed. Some people probably don’t know that those little windows up in the attic used to serve a good purpose just in case it snowed and drifted so much you were trapped inside the house.
Anyhow, I’ve finished my step goal for the evening so I get to relax and watch some video. To get my steps up I ended by pacing around the office carrying my water bottle weights.
I hope you enjoy the pictures.

Wow amazing view . that is valuable article and great photography
Thanks @lightsplasher
Have a great day
Oh yes @lightsplasher, very beautiful photos of your walk, although the weather is winter!
Excellent review @lightsplasher and you can see immediately that it is cold, but the landscapes on your photos look amazing!
Wow, you have more and more steps. And there are great landscapes, so the walk will not be boring.
It was a great walk. You have a wide variety of birds. Interesting to watch them
Such beautiful landscape photography. Love the detail in the foreground and the feeling of freedom in those open spaces. I have always loved backgrounds with low lying layers of interest like this. Every image is a gem.
Do you know nTOPAZ At the moment their new contest is Landscape Photography and any of these images would be perfect. ♥︎♥︎⚖️♥︎♥︎
I had not heard of nTOPAZ yet, it looks very interesting from my brief look at it. I think I will probably sign up. If you send me a referral before the 28th I believe you can get some tokens if you want. Thanks for commenting. :)
I'm not into referral tokens @lightsplasher. Just go to https://www.ntopaz.com/sign_up and it will be wonderful to see you there. ♥︎♥︎⚖️♥︎♥︎
I have thought the same thing that we used to get much more snow when I was a little kid, or at least it sure felt so!
What gorgeous views, a Winter wonderland,
We have probably had the least snow we have had for years this winter and I hope I am not tempting fate by saying this lOL
There are a lot of great views close by from where I live. I feel very lucky to be able to get out in nature pretty easily. The last few years have been very low snow years. Every once in a while we get some snow around here. It is kind of nice for a change.
Thats nice that you have nice areas to go to, I must say looking out the window now and seeing snow falling is nice, but glad to not be out in it lOL
