I walked uptown while Jay was visiting with a hospital-sponsored dietitian for a two-hour class. The Burnaby Hospital booked him last month as a part of his post-bypass surgery in the Healthy Heart Program. He knew that there'd not be a great deal to learn but, as long as it was a free service provided to former surgical patients, he figured, "Why not?" He had a lot of individual attention as only two others were attending.
So, I took the time for a little walk. Going uptown is not far but our city is on quite a hill. It is very good exercise and now that the weather has improved, I should probably make this effort frequently. I walked up Fourth Street through the most beautiful part of New Westminster, between Queen's Park and Sixth Street. That area is mostly heritage housing and owners put a lot of effort in keeping up their lawns and gardens. I put today's pictures of the walk on my Flickr account. Perhaps someday, I can create a few blog entries just to show off an amazing, little-seen area of New Westminster.
