And then one day I decided to go outside...

It was in the summer of 2017 when I couldn't take sitting in front of a screen any more, so I decided to take a walk.  Sure, it was hot and humid, being summer and Arkansas.  Then a few minutes turned into a mile, then two, then four, then a late afternoon, then a Saturday.  And it just kept getting better.  
A bottle of water turned into a backpack and down the road turned into the Buffalo National River.  As the miles pass the years and pounds drop off and I feel better than I did twenty years ago.  Every trip brings new adventures, so here are a few (dozen?) pictures and an odd thought or two.

 Click on the links below to get the commentary and photos from my excursions.  As soon as another one happens it'll move to the "So far..." section.  And I've added a blog section.  This is a work in progress, so check back from time to time and see if I've had to face down a bear with nothing but a discount flick knife.  And if you want to contact me, there's a form below.
