Open spaces, beautiful land and.........CHICKENS!!!

Our walk through the streets of Yucaipa took us from up on the top of Fir Street all the way down to Stater Bros on Bryant. These streets took us past huge beautiful homes, large open fields and lots of ........ CHICKENS!!!!

The open spaces in this area are large and beautiful rolling hills.  It appears there are lots of hiking trails or dirt paths up here - many of which we want to try when we have a little more daylight.

Tomorrow we won't be on the streets, but Saturday morning we have a long walk planned that will begin up at the very top of Carter Street (at the entrance to the El Dorado hiking trails).  Come join us at 7:00am - t's a great way to start your weekend!!!

Yucaipa (pronoun) definition God's Country; Vast Beauty

Yucaipa (pronoun) definition God's Country; Vast Beauty
OK..... well maybe that is Webster's definition of our little town, but it sure is mine!!!  Each day our quest to WALK EVERY STREET IN YUCAIPA opens our eyes to the vast beauty of our community.  The homes, the landscaping, the colors and most of all the people.  
Put away your computers folks, shut off your televisions and go out and see your communities.  Get to know your neighbors and take your time to breathe in the beauty around you.
Today our 3.25 mile walk took us from Carter Street to Fir Street off of Bryant.  Tomorrow we start were we left off today on Carter & Fremont - meet us at 4:15pm if you want to see all the beauty that we are talking about everyday.  Let's get healthy together as we walk Yucaipa.

Burning off those Thanksgiving calories......

Well after both of us enjoying the Thanksgiving break with our family, we are back to walking the streets of Yucaipa.  Today's walk brought us out to the North Bench area once again.  The Fall colors were in full force along these streets, which made for a beautiful crisp walk.

We walked the Executive Mobilehomes Estate which is a very nice mobile home park here in town.  Lot's of homes are already decked out with their Christmas lights and all residents we ran into were all very friendly.

Tomorrow's walk continues in the Northeastern part of town and will start at Fir and wind its way through all the street east of Bryant and end on Birchwood.  If you want to join us on our quest to WALK EVERY STREET IN YUCAIPA, meet us at 4:15 on Fir and Bryant (dress warm - these evenings have been cold)!!!

Sorry this was blurry - but I will do better next time.

3.02 miles on this beautiful evening.

Our quest to WALK EVERY STREET IN YUCAIPA took us on a 3 mile journey along Ivy Street - from Cherry Croft to Juniper -  in the North Bench area.  The sheer beauty of this area doesn't require any words......


Enjoy the beauty of our town!!!






















We will be taking a week off due to both of us traveling during the Thanksgiving Break, so we will see you all on Monday, November 30th.
