So, today I got over 22k steps and most of it because I went hiking with my wife. Now I did walk the dog in the morning and the evening so that did give me some steps, but mostly it was walking with my wife.

So, where did we go? Burnaby mountain. Very nice trails. Of course being high on the mountain means you get great views of the inlet.

There are also some great views of the city (Vancouver).

There is even a flower garden and big playing fields with totem poles. Overall a great place to visit and its free, horray!

Even the water reservoir has some cool artwork on it.

Overall, it was a good day at the park. Unfortunately it is on a mountain so there was an awful lot of ups and downs on the trail, that makes it more challenging. We did decide to forgo the “Advanced” area

The only down side of the day was that my wife got angry at me for things which I’d say weren’t really my fault.

Item #1: We didn’t leave early enough. However, I was the one up early and she slept in. Hmm…

Item #2: When we got back from the hike I was really sleepy. She got some rest in the car (45min drive) but I was bushed. I asked her to get out quickly while I was to park the car. She was she was going to move really slowly to spite me. So, I parked in the driveway instead of the garage. She said that was threatening her, really.

Then she got mad at me for (a) putting a sandwich in the wrong fridge, (b) putting a diet cola in the wrong fridge, and © putting a parfait container in the sink.

Now I thought those were pretty petty reasons to get mad at me because (a) I had just woken up from a nap and (b) I didn’t put any of those items in those places so I had no idea what she was getting mad at.

My son had a good laugh later when he admitted to doing it and I’m just shaking y head thinking, really?

Anyways, the day ended well. I got lots of steps, got to enjoy nature, and generally had a good day…even if I did get yelled at for little things I didn’t do.

Just part of being married I suppose.
