Training for Hadrian's Wall plus Magpie


Continuing to training for Hadrian's Wall, Sharon and I hiked from Bannister Park to the Sunflower Drive-in in Old Fair Oaks. We covered 6.6 miles in about two hours and forty-five minutes. We had nutburgers [nutmeat patty served on a whole wheat bun with sauce, onions, pickles, tomatoes, romaine, and sprouts] for lunch. Afterwards, we got rained on pretty hard a couple of times on our way back to the car.

We finished the day with dinner at Magpie. We spent most of the dinner doing some planning for the England/Scotland trip in June. We split SCALLOP CRUDO [Citrus cured scallops, blood orange, grapefruit, herbs]. For entrees, Sharon had PAPPARDELLE WITH BRAISED BEEF, while I had SWORDFISH [Rapini, red pepper sauce]. Sharon wasn't impressed with the food or the ambience; she said that it is a better lunch than dinner spot...
