Tested out the new OVRLND camper's seals on some dusty trails with great success! 

Looking forward to another fun day today! (More photos and maybe a video or two coming soon!)

Transforming while wandering...⁠ ⁠ As you prob Transforming while wandering...⁠
⁠
As you probably know, we're in the throes of #dopeychallenge training and Saturday is our long run day. This week, long run day coincided with our trip to @grandcanyonnps, and the Rim Trail was just about the perfect distance.⁠
⁠
11 miles at +-7000 ft of elevation was tough for a couple of flatlanders but with scenery like this, we weren't complaining. 🤩⁠
⁠
In fact, we are already contemplating a repeat for next week's 12 mile run. ⁠
If we do, we'll definitely run TO and not FROM Hermit's rest so we don't have to run uphill all the way! (That's what happens when you don't preview the course, LOL 😂😫😂)⁠
⁠
Then again, there are so many new places to explore...⁠

Happy Birthday to us!!! It's been a long several Happy Birthday to us!!!

It's been a long several months, but we got our camper yesterday!

A big thanks to Jay, Matt, Maggie, and the whole team @ovrlndcampers for building an amazing camper, for putting up with our millions of questions... and for getting it done early, in time for our September birthdays (even though they didn't know that last part until now) 😊

Let the adventures begin!

The road goes on forever and...⁠ ⁠ Sometimes e The road goes on forever and...⁠
⁠
Sometimes even beautiful scenery becomes a tad monotonous. It's not like we don't enjoy each other's company, and many times we can get started on a conversation that will carry us through a long drive. But some days, you need something else to get you through.⁠
⁠
One thing we enjoy is audiobooks. We appreciate that they don't distract, but keep our brains "checked-in" on a long drive with a lot of the same scenery.⁠
⁠
Our choice for the last few days has been, The Murderbot Diaries - Book One, "All Systems Red" by Martha Wells. Sandy has been listening to this series on her long runs, and she wanted to introduce me. I am definitely hooked! Can't wait to start Book 2 on the next leg of our trip. :)⁠
⁠
Oh, and a quick shoutout and THANKS to the Houston Public Library for making library cards available to everyone!⁠
⁠
So, what do you do to help break the monotony on your long drives? Tell us in the comments 👇👇👇👇⁠

Nothing like an easy lakeside dinner after a long Nothing like an easy lakeside dinner after a long day of exploring both on and off the water!⁠
⁠
This was a short trip, so we didn't want meal preparation and cleanup to take up much of our time.  That meant we brought along a couple of pre-made meals and plenty of easy-to-grab snacks.  In this case, our snacks turned into a meal!⁠
⁠
Our low-carb charcuterie doesn't have any crackers, but we've got cheese crisps and buttery toasted pecans for plenty of crunch.  Those are both new additions to our board, along with some Spanish chorizo and grilled artichoke hearts.  Yum!⁠

🏈🟨 Personal foul... @reeses...15 Yards for T 🏈🟨 Personal foul... @reeses...15 Yards for Taunting. ⁠
⁠
Most of you probably know by now, that Sandy and I started a low-carb diet a few weeks ago. What many of you may not know is that I LOVE Reese's! ⁠
⁠
Surprisingly, I have done well so far at avoiding sugary sweets. 🍬 I can pass the candy rack at the checkout with no problem at all. But for some reason, seeing these "footballs" (a new shape) got me drooling.⁠
⁠
I made it out of the store without them, but then I got to thinking, why were these particular candies so much harder to resist? Pretty sure I fell victim to the same kind of marketing that was at least partially responsible for me being 400+ lbs for a large portion of my life.⁠
⁠
So, what's different now? A little thing called mindfulness. Do I still enjoy Reese's? Heck yes!!! The difference is that I have learned to make a conscious decision to eat them, and I don't just let the Reese's company tell me when I should eat them.⁠
⁠
Oh, and in case you were wondering. After some quick Googling, I found that I could enjoy one of these tasty treats and easily stay within my plan. But after the initial excitement of discovering them at the store, they really aren't calling me anymore.⁠
⁠
Maybe next time Reese's.⁠

The building across the river was originally a cotton gin owned by Henry Troell in the 1880s.  In 1895, he added hydroelectric capabilities, which provided the first pumped water and electricity to the city of Seguin, making this one of the first hydroelectric plants in Texas!⁠
⁠
Today, that building is a restaurant the @seguinpowerplant  We were a little too sweaty to stop by after running 9 miles around the park, but we hear that there is still some of the original machinery inside.  Put that one on the list to check out!⁠
⁠
One last note - both Starcke Park and the dam were designed by Robert H.H. Hugman, the architect of the River Walk in San Antonio. Too cool!⁠

Ever run an accidental 10K? 😲⁠ ⁠ Today's tr Ever run an accidental 10K? 😲⁠
⁠
Today's training run was 9 miles (the longest of our current training plan). It went surprisingly well, given that we have both been struggling with our running workouts since we started our low-carb eating plan... AND it's hot as Hades outside! 👿⁠
⁠
BUT that wasn't the biggest surprise of the day. When we saved our run we saw that we had been awarded the "August Weekend 10k" badge from Garmin. We had both forgotten even signing up for it, and that it was going on this weekend!⁠
⁠
As I (Lloyd) told someone in an interview last week, "Motivation is found many places." Sometimes that motivation can be found in imaginary internet points... even when you don't know you are earning them. 😉⁠

⁠
Another Halloween photo of course!!! LOL!⁠
⁠
Yes, we love Halloween, and Halloween at Fort WIlderness is like nothing else we have ever been a part of. If you haven't experienced it, we highly recommend it. Disney fans do know how to throw a great Halloween bash!⁠
⁠
Pro Tip: The Fort is always a tough reservation, and especially during Halloween. Book early and if at first you don't succeed, keep trying. Things change daily with Disney reservations. Remember what Walt said, "The difference in winning and losing is most often... not quitting."
