Hi, this is Michael Summers.
75-year-old retired 41 years in the classroom teacher out of Halem, Oregon.
When COVID started in 2020,
my dog Squishy and I started taking daily hikes and we're out now about to cross our 4,000th mile.
This show was recorded at 12 37 p.m.
Eastern time on Friday October 24th 2025.
Things may certainly have changed since you hear this,
but Squishy and I will still be walking the stunningly beautiful hills of the Northwest.
Enjoy the show.
Squishy and I will.
I love that.
I aspire.
4,000 miles in my 70s.
