Dallas to NYC: Day 4

April 8, 2012

a planned 3-mile run yesterday morning turned into 4+. it was just so pretty, and running in a different city is always exciting since everything is new to my eyes.

breakfast at the hotel, then we set out on our bikes for hours.

a trip to the park, complete with farmers market. I’m obsessed with the moss.

cruised around all of the historic squares, and stopped into a cemetery, aka a park.

we’d seen all we wanted of Savannah, so we took off for an afternoon in Hilton Head.

after some time at the beach with our feet in the sand, we rode our bikes around.

a long, glorious day! any day that begins with a run is always great.

we ordered dinner to-go and drove just over an hour to Hampton, SC where we stayed last night. we’re currently on our way to Augusta, Georgia to attend the final round of the Masters. no phones, no cameras, all golf, all day. I’m really excited! and if I’m really excited, there are no words for Billy’s state of mind.

Happy Easter!

    “any day that begins with a run is always great” -> you got that right, dorry!!! there is just an extra buzz and energy and feeling of being centred that a morning run provides!
    we just finished our family easter celebration – no one could go home until we saw who would win the masters! i was thinking of you and billy (and looking for you in the background – haha!).
    gorgeous photos, as always!

      I’ve been on a running kick! and I know it’s because I was bored with my routes in Dallas, and I love running in new cities. there’s so much to see! I hope you had a very Happy Easter. I’m planning to catch up on some blog reading/commenting today. :)
