Yesterday (Saturday) my husband and I took my Mom to the Zoo for a day trip. She uses a walker, but we pushed her around in a transport chair we bought for excursions where she might have to do more walking than usual.
The Zoo was really crowded - I had forgotten that October was "Children are Free" month, but it was still delightful to walk around and enjoy the Zoo. We took the Monkey Trail to Albert's restaurant, and then walked the Hippo Trail, ending up at the Children's Zoo. I think my Mom had a good time, and I estimate I walked about 9800 steps, based on my husband's pedometer reading. Fortunately my Mom weighs less than 100 lbs.
This was a planned "day off the diet" and I tried to eat sensibly, but I'm still stuck at my last weight. I'm not giving up, though. Today I joined Moose & Doc's "Waiting for the Moose" on Facebook.
The original Talking Moose was related to Clippy - back in the dark ages. I liked Talking Moose more than Clippy, and I'm looking forward to his next incarnation.
