Location: my driveway

Hiked with: myself and a snow shovel

Route/trail: up and down, back and forth, and an occasional round and round to break the monotony

Weather: 25 degrees, light snow and wind

Altitudes/elevations/conditions: one steep part of the driveway caught me off guard and I fell (gracefully of course-haha) to my hands and knees. That's humbling!

Sightings: many animal tracks in the yard

Emotions, etc:I actually like shoveling and find it refreshing to be outside on a winter day. We'll see if this is still the 'emotion' if we're shoveling through until spring :) In a week that I could take a longer hike this activity is a good compromise.
