I've been spending many of my summer evenings walking around Valle Crucis Park. Sometimes I run into friends and we chat a bit. Other times I don't and instead opt for a side venture to the cool banks of the Watauga River. The river is the definitive greenspace. The simple pleasure of skipping river rocks while get my sneakers a little wet is more relaxing than any form of yoga.
Oh. I almost forgot. As long as my knees will allow me, I'm gonna do the Valle Crucis 7 Miler tomorrow morning. A dip in the river afterward already sounds like a must-do.
