Oh that lake seems magical. I understand why you are so happy. Its sad to see the fire destroying stuff but nature has it own way of bringing back life.
I got to read of a few of the posts you mentioned I will go and read what I missed out.

Yeah it isn't about the number of steps that you get in... its the spirit of the challenge which matters. I get you. @Melinda010100 is one of the most active people around here and yeah I was quite surprised when I got to know about her sometime last week.
