Walking is the best possible exercise.
Habituate yourself to walk very far.

~ Thomas Jefferson (American – President / April 13, 1743 – July 4, 1826)

Holidays and Celebrations:



Porte Musings:

Thai citizens celebrate the Thai New Year. I say it would be a wonderful day to celebrate and start again. Still under stay at home orders in Ontario our children will not be returning to in person classes after the spring break. All children will be continuing their learning for the remainder of the school year at home and on line. Even private schools have been ordered to continue by remote learning. The only exception is day care.

Today is Thomas Jefferson’s Birthday, also called Thomas Jefferson Day. Inventor and President as well as a strong supporter of walking as the best exercise. So celebrate by going for a walk. Even under stay at home orders the Provincial Parks are open and admission is free Monday to Thursday. Do some “forest bathing” to refresh your soul.

If the weather doesn’t co-operate you could celebrate Scrabble Day. One of my favorite games, Scrabble on line or in person challenges everyone. So memorize those 2 letter words, keep your mind active and play a game with a friend or two.

  1. Today is a day for me! I retired from Jefferson College. And I love to walk at Jefferson Barracks, one of my favorite parks on the Mississippi. AND I love Scrabble and have been playing it for 50 years (about). I’ve played in a number of Scrabble tournaments (in the lower divisions) which are now on hold. Thanks for your post, and enjoy your day!
