I HAD A PRETTY BUSY DAY AT THE BEACH YESTERDAY

I had a very busy day here at the beach yesterday. First off me and Scott went on about a 4 to 5 mile bike ride mostly back in Nags Head Woods Wildlife Refuge and I think we might explore it a little more this morning. After that I went on a 3 mile run with Scottie, he had some problems keeping up with me after the 1st mile but he did finish without stopping. After eating lunch I went down to the beach to join the rest of the group and I stayed there for about 3 hours and I got a little sunburn on my left arm and I now water back in my right ear. Then Donna and Joy cooked spaghetti for supper and then I just relaxed for the rest of the day. I have posted a link below to all the photos that AL has taken the last two days, as you can tell AL and Donna aren't in any of the photos. Hopefully me or mom can get some shots of the both of them today. Keith, Andrew and Maureen should be arriving on the OBX tomorrow morning. MICKEY

Heatstroke and heat exhaustion are potentially deadly conditions stemming from a dangerous rise in body temperature. While everyone is at risk of a heat-related illness, some people are especially vulnerable.

The U.S. National Safety Council says the following people should take extra care to keep cool and hydrated during the stifling heat of summer:
-Senior citizens.
-Babies and young children.
-Outdoor pets.
-People with heart conditions, circulatory problems or other chronic illnesses.
-Anyone who has to work outside in the mid-day heat.
-People who exercise outdoors frequently.
-People who take medication that affects sweat production.
-People who abuse alcohol and drugs.

Fitness does not have to be expensive. Ultimately any money you spend on a serious fitness routine will come back to you tenfold in health and fitness benefits and happiness. But if you are on a tight budget there should be no problem. All you need is a rope to jump or a flight of stairs to climb. And let us not forget the endless natural terrain that Mother Nature provides for us to run and hike and rollerblade on.

Besides pride, loyalty, discipline, heart, and mind, confidence is the key to all the locks. -- Joe Paterno
