Got to shape up.....!

Well it's official! I'm a year older today and many would say none the wiser :) It's a little ironic don't you think that the time between each birthday as you get older seems to get shorter! So with summer approaching, although yesterday's weather was a bit wild, check out the approaching rain below, it's time to shape up! There's no excuse, you don't have to join a gym.. in many of the parks around Perth the public exercise equipment is excellent, and here at McCallum Park in Victoria Park south of the river the view over Heirrison Island to the city is not too shabby! You can exercise alone.. or with a friend, or even with a complete stranger :) Yup, that's moi below getting carried away while on a family picnic when the weather was a lot warmer. Hope you have a wonderful weekend, go on.. get carried away :) Take care.....

  3. Many happy returns, Grace. The darkening sky looks fantastic.
    The exercise equipment looks cute and useful, but it does not "call" to me.

  15. Happiest birthday to you. I know what you mean about the years "getting shorter" as you get older. My birthday was recently at the beginning of October and I felt just the same. Colour exercise equipment. And not just for the young ones. A great idea.

  25. Here's a solution to the problem of birthdays coming too quickly. My wife got mixed up and thought she was 52 when she was only 51. A couple of days before her birthday she was at the doctor's office and had to give her age. After she did so the nurse say her birthdate said that she was wrong about her age. So, on her birthday she got to look forward to living her 52nd year all over again, without aging at all.

  32. We have some areas/parks where there is exercise equipment but I've seen none as elaborate as this stuff! That's really wonderful! Hope your birthday celebration was a very happy one, and so here's another "Happy Birthday."

    I would have to say from the looks of things you are in pretty great shape! I think it's moi who needs the exercise. So, I heading out for a bike ride. See what a great influence you are?
