Temperatures are averaging 35 degrees during the day, so we are spending more time inside. Therefore, it&#8217;s a good time to focus on our <a title=\"Health and Wellness\" href=\"http:\/\/itsgardeningtime.com\/?page_id=1439\" target=\"_blank\">health and wellness<\/a>! We took advantage of the opportunity to get outside and visit Black Hill Regional Park\/Seneca Lake in Gaithersburg, Maryland. To get our 30 minutes of exercise per day, we took a brisk walk on a blustery Fall day. A brisk walk in the cold gets your metabolism going! Your body has to work harder to stay warm, therefore you burn more calories. A brisk walk also improves your mood by increasing the &#8220;feel good&#8221; endorphines!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1258\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1258\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/itsgardeningtime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/itsgardeningtime.com18-e1413739671952.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1258\" src=\"http:\/\/itsgardeningtime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/itsgardeningtime.com18-e1413739671952-300x226.png\" alt=\"A Fall Afternoon at Black Hill Regional Park\/Seneca Lake\" width=\"300\" height=\"226\" srcset=\"https:\/\/itsgardeningtime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/itsgardeningtime.com18-e1413739671952-300x226.png 300w, https:\/\/itsgardeningtime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/itsgardeningtime.com18-e1413739671952.png 756w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1258\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A Fall Afternoon at Black Hill Regional Park\/Seneca Lake<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1259\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1259\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/itsgardeningtime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/itsgardeningtime.com19-e1413739769525.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1259\" src=\"http:\/\/itsgardeningtime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/itsgardeningtime.com19-e1413739769525-300x225.png\" alt=\"A Fall Afternoon at Black Hill Regional Park\/Seneca Lake\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/itsgardeningtime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/itsgardeningtime.com19-e1413739769525-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/itsgardeningtime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/itsgardeningtime.com19-e1413739769525.png 756w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1259\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A Fall Afternoon at Black Hill Regional Park\/Seneca Lake<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none;\" src=\"\/\/rcm-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/cm?o=1&amp;p=26&amp;l=ur1&amp;category=mostwishforitem&amp;banner=1M2GXANPMRX5Z7KV4202&amp;f=ifr&amp;linkID=a6908348bef14822a2b11459f8f8e883&amp;t=itsgati-20&amp;tracking_id=itsgati-20\" width=\"468\" height=\"60\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1140\" height=\"641\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Ae-WNkeBqFs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" gesture=\"media\" allow=\"encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none;\" src=\"\/\/rcm-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/cm?o=1&amp;p=26&amp;l=ur1&amp;category=topratedproducts&amp;banner=0QTP2RQ2DJCHQJQANNR2&amp;f=ifr&amp;linkID=d0cc32dc5ed1215041962ded92fd3ab7&amp;t=itsgati-20&amp;tracking_id=itsgati-20\" width=\"468\" height=\"60\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>We also like to visit Massanutten in the Fall.
