This epic road trip has sparked some fun memories.

Hi, I'm Dave, welcome to walking as fitness, a daily 10-minute podcast designed to provide you

with a little added motivation to get out the door, take the walk, and I believe even more importantly, to keep on going.

Today's 10-minute walk starts right after this it is

the final morning in Fort Walton Beach Florida soon as I'm done walking I'm going to be

hopping in the car and heading back to Myrtle Beach.

It's going to be a long ride.

It's almost 10 hours in the car.

Throw in a couple of stops, 10 and a half hours, and I've got the time change working against me because Fort Walton Beach is in the central time zone.

So probably about an hour or two after I get in the car, I'm going to lose an hour.

Or gain an hour. How's that work?

Bottom line, it's going to feel like I've been driving for 11.5 hours, not just 10 and a half,

but grateful for the opportunity to come down to Florida, to spend time with my daughter and

our five grandchildren. I hope, I know from my perspective, memories have been made this weekend.

I don't know what the grandkids will remember, some of them, I'm sure, because of their age.

Won't remember this at all, but maybe the older ones will. Remember when Papa Dee just showed up at the house

and surprised us?

Got me thinking though about memories

of other memories with our six children

and how a lot of those memories,

certainly not all of them,

but a lot of those memories involve walking.
