I needed to get outside after spending the morning inside at home. I went to Belleplain to walk the lake trail. It was pretty good for a while, but then I got to a point that was totally flooded. I walked through some of it since my boots are waterproof, but it got too deep for even that so I was walking along the edge and blazing through vines and thorns to get past.

Luckily that was the only time I encountered flooding along the trail so the rest was a nice easy walk listening to music and podcasts. It always seems so much longer when I'm not running. Either way I enjoyed my time outside.

I went up to Philly and picked up Davonne later to go to Barcade. DuClaw was having a tap takeover and it's a good thing Barcade has a shitload of taps to accommodate all of their beers! It really did seem like they brought everything.

I turned Davonne on to the Sweet Baby Jesus, loved by all. She was hooked. I had some of my favorites including the Misfit Red and the X6. It was a fun time at the bar and we didn't even end up playing any games. We went back to her apartment for a little while before I headed home.

I was up early and it was nice out so I drove to the parking lot for the lake trail loop at Belleplain State Park and got ready for a run. Since I haven't run as much lately I wasn't sure how I would do. Once I got started I felt great. I knew I could keep going and I did. The mental aspect of running has always been the struggle for me. My body can do it, and I rarely if ever give out physically. Normally the ennui kicks in before I start, but once I get going I'm good. I ran 5 miles through the beautiful autumn forest whose trail was blanketed with crunchy leaves and whose trees waved red and yellow flags to mark the season. 'Twas a great run.

When I got home I guess I hadn't had enough because I biked up to Vineland to meet Ryan for a round of disc golf. I just wanted to keep being outside. We had a great game and then decided to take a walk around the lake while we were there. After that I biked home. I had lunch, a shower, and a nap. It was a nice afternoon. Later I went to Kate's and had a few beers that were leftover from previous outings. Thus concluded my day of excitement.

After sleeping in I got up and decided to go for a run at Belleplain. I ran most of the trail and walked the rest of the way back to the car. It was a nice day so I didn't mind the walk.

Later my sister came over and we went to get ice cream with Aiden. He definitely enjoys it. I probably shouldn't have had any, but I did anyway.

It was a nice relaxing day after a lot of drinking yesterday. I needed a rest.
