Good Monday morning to you all! I hope you had a fantastic weekend. I don't know how the weather is in your area,
but it's been quite nice around these parts. It's in the upper 90's and
blazing hot, but we've had summer showers every day to cool the earth
down a bit and make it more bearable.

We spent a lot of our weekend outside. Did I tell you that we signed up for a 5k race? Lately we've been trying to train for that (we're not runners, so it takes a lot of training even though it's a pretty short race.) It felt so great to get hot and sweaty and then dive into a cool pool. I'm feeling so energized and refreshed this morning because of it, although I feel like my muscles might fall off at any moment.
Running isn't the only thing that took us outside for the weekend, we also went to Bok Towers in Lake Wales with my dad to celebrate his birthday, the big 5-0! Here's some pics from the wildlife we encountered and a sneak peek of the tower we saw. More on that in tomorrow's post!

| Giant locust. Isn't he beautiful up close? |
 |
| Squirrel, a.k.a. flufferchunks |
 |
| A toad. I love his big belly! |

| Bok Tower...one of the most beautiful places I've seen in Florida. |
Did you get outside at all this weekend? What's your favorite outdoor activity?
