Next up on this trying Thursday took me on a trip downtown to see Max. After a warm greeting he shook off his slumber and we were heading for the door. We stretched our legs on the way through Monument Square to get warmed up, and said hello to a couple familiar faces. Then we made a right turn onto Spring St. and got some exercise as we made some strides up the hill. We made a quick pit stop near the top to catch our breath for a second before cooling down the rest of the way home to relax.
