Greetings! We
spent the weekend in a Yurt at Cloudland Canyon State Park. This was our second
time to camp in the Park, third stay to Cloudland Canyon for a weekend and
first time to sleep in a Yurt. A Yurt is a wonderful invention of the
Steppe that has been in use for thousands of years. Basically, a Yurt is a
circular, mobile tent. We really enjoyed the concept, and our stay in the Yurt.
In fact, we are seriously considering purchasing one for ourselves. 
As noted above, I’ve
spent a fair amount of time in Cloudland Canyon and have had several
opportunities to go running inside and out the State Park. During this stay, I
opted to exercise inside the Yurt Saturday and Sunday. It was particularly
chilly Sunday, but that’s not what kept me from running. The narrow and
winding roads that I have traversed previously held markedly less appeal. I just
didn’t feel the urge to negotiate the limited space with moving vehicles,
especially given I have run there in the past. So, I tried new cardio and
resistance programs inside the Yurt. This proved promising as Shannan and I
talked about future possibilities of getting a Yurt of our own.
Enjoy the new and the familiar.
Exercise,
Tom
