Good morning, walkercizers! Interesting talk about cell phones it does fit in with walking. I always carry mine in. My back pocket for emergencies. It has a pedometer which I really like except that the pedometer always tells me that I haven’t walked far enough! I must admit, even the dog didn’t want to go on a walk yesterday—too hot. Maybe today!

@becsbuddy Having a way to contact someone is always wise when walking. I'm sure my phone has an app for mileage, but since I don't "do" apps, I guesstimate time. My husband's smart phone tells him steps and stairs. When he was working it kept track of things for the company's wellness plan. That's too smart for me!
Walking in the cooler weather this morning was so nice. There is a warm up expected, but right now all the wildflowers are blooming their crazy-purple-and-other-colors heads off, so pops of color in morning gray are welcome. Strolling along the neighbor's garden recently brought this, another great reason to have a phone along!

@becsbuddy The other reason cell phones fit with walking is virtual walking buddies. My friend in Illinois has no one to walk with, in a tiny town with little to look at and no alternate routes. So once a week we walk "together" and catch up on our family news. I can also sometimes catch my busy brother between stops in his contracting business and have a quick chat.
