Pattie and I walked to Beacon Hill Park from our apartment today.

The temperature felt like it was about 15 Celsius, and it was sunny the entire time we were outside. We stood on a stone bridge and watched a number of ducks practicing landing on a pond: they would take off, fly across the pond, and touch down on the surface of the water in a manner that allowed them to brake gradually and stop just before they reached the shore. Then we went to a coffee shop on Douglas near Belleville. Pattie had mocha, and I had cappuccino. Then we walked home. Pattie did a very good job of walking throughout. I was afraid her stamina might give out, but she held up nicely.
