My second Saturday Farmers Market felt more relaxed and enjoyable. We layered our clothes, even though it was 50ish when we headed out at 8:30, not knowing how breezy it was downtown or how soon it would warm up. As soon as Cliff helped me set up, we were peeling off light jackets and about an hour later, off came the sweatshirts. Chamber of commerce weather all day.

I realize the kinks have to be straightened out in the beginning so being a newbie, I was ready to play the game. But during the week, the site map changed again and I am back to my original premier spot.

The other gym, Erlanger Fit Plus membership runs out in September. Cliff and I belonged to it since moving here and it has a great rehab program that both of us have used at different times. One time I asked a therapist about knee discomfort/pain and he showed me ways to strengthen quads and leg muscles to prevent knee weakness. Cliff did PT a few times for back discomfort due to belly pulling on his back muscles. After the PT a patient get a free month at the gym. We did Zumba and yoga classes together. But now I need to swim. Pool is heated when the temperatures cool down. Our mornings have bee...
