hiking day

Hiking Day.

note: I will start labelling days 'hiking days'. this will probably become the only use for this blog (prevented i don't start giving chapter by chapter summaries of star trek books - which sounds quite fun now that i think about it)

hiking days are the equivalent of me saying 'wow, today is a perfect day.' so far this year, there have been perhaps 5 days that i made a mental note of how great they were - so there might not be that many updates to come. i think it would be fun after a year of noting these days, to be able to look back and see what days over the last year were days that struck me weather wise. this is starting to sound pretty lame, but anyway.

more notes: hiking day is synonomous to the kind of day where listening to the radio in the car seems just as enjoyable as listening to a cd. these are also the kinds of days that are good for pavement.

note: these days don't have to be good all day. don't come to me saying but chad, it rained this afternoon - as it's doing today. i'd say, well the first hiking day it rained - but that didn't stop me from sticking to it! - although it might have had i not just figured that if i didn't make today a hiking day, then i'd never think of it again. there.

if you're just joining us, i have taken the liberty of naming today a hiking day of the year. i'm thinking i'll try to get in at least one day a month (which, yes, may lead to some questionable days earlier in the month getting in)

as a reader, you should think of hiking days posts as things that matter to me and do not concern you whatsoever. unintentionally, i understand, you will be subjected to them however. maybe i'll throw in a line or two for your entertainment.
