After you have finished your Thanksgiving meals and can't even bear to look at the sight of the leftovers, head outside and start walking off your extra calories!  According to the weather forecast, the weekend is expected to be mild with temperatures in the low 50s and upper 40s, with a chance of rain for both days.  Keep your eye on the forecast and take a chance of one of the fun outdoor events happening this weekend.  There are multiple walks at state parks that range from 2 to 6 miles, all at a moderate pace on a flat path.  There are also some bird walks going on that are sure to be easy for families while still helping you to get some exercise.  Tackapausha Museum and Preserve is having a big holiday event that will include a live wildlife program as well as a bird walk along the preserve.  For those who missed the turkey trots on Thanksgiving, Mount Sinai High School will be hosting their trot on Saturday, and there is another charitable 5K hapening at Stillwell Woods Preserve.
