50 SEIKO WALKS SUMMARY



Late in October 2020 I decided to take a walk along the Mission Beach boardwalk. I was wearing one of my favorite Seiko watches, and was accompanied by my wife. The following day we went to a different region of the bay, and I wore another of my Seikos. I a few photos of the beautiful fall weather, wrote up a quick summary, and posted them online. That's how it all started. To avoid COVID problems, we walk in remote areas, or at the break of dawn, don't eat along the way, and avoid contact with strangers. 

We look for beautiful and/or interesting sights. We always find something to report, and something that lifts our spirits.

Now we have completed 50 walks, it's almost Christmas, and I have almost run out of Seikos to wear. We've walked approximately 250,000 steps, taken over 3000 images, visited a number of sites we didn't know existed, and worn every warm piece of clothing in our closets. The posts have attracted about 12,000 views to date, and lots of feedback, which has been fun. 

Here is the "Table of Contents" so far...
