Baxter and I walked the headland this morning but boy was I longing to be on the water. Both Trinidad Bay and the ocean off of Trinidad State Beach were glassy, warm and there was no wind. As they say, smooth as silk. This afternoon Trinidad hit 72 degrees which is really warm for us. …
Baxter and I had a great walk on Trinidad Head this morning. There is a lot of activity on the headland...day and night. By the looks and quantity of all the scat I saw this week I suspect there are fox dens on the headland. The scat looks similar to what my husband and I …

Experts suggest you vary your workouts rather than always doing the same thing. My new routine is mixing my daily walks with paddling. Instead of walking the trails today we took to the water at Big Lagoon and the adjacent Maple Creek. My brother in-law Craig and sister-in-law Michelle joined us. We started out in …
