Seen on today's walk: The Town's Christmas Tree, in the Town Square, but this time, at night and lit up unlike the last time.

Seen on today's walk: this used to be part of a factory, but it's been abandoned for decades: overgrown, rusting, broken windows.  It's a shame. (right after this, though, I walked through a spiderweb, right at my hairline.  And despite shaking my head repeatedly and running my hands all through my hair, I STILL feel like there's gonna be a spider crawling around in there)

 Walks 2021

Today, when I got out of bed, before I even had my coffee, since it wasn't too hot yet, I figured I'd take a walk.  I had some things that needed mailed, so I walked to the Post Office, and then stopped to get my coffee on the way home.  (and then I had breakfast and some Front Porch Readin'...but that's not part of this post).



Seen on today's walk: Well, at least one person had come back to reality.

Last night,  (I forgot to post it then) I walked 1.49 miles in 31 minutes.

Seen on last night's walk: The Uniquely Designed Planter.  It looks like the chopped off the trunk and limbs of a tree, made a wooden planter and attached it to the limbs, put a large pot on the trunk, then put other potted plants on top of the structure.

 Walks 2021

Today I walked 1.63  miles in 34 minutes. 



Seen on today's walk: When I was kid, me and a neighbor friend was get chalk and draw roads all over the sidewalk.  We'd make bridges over water, we'd make road up through the mountains.  We'd make intersections and such like that.  And then we'd drive our Matchbox cars all through it.  We called it Car City.  And after we had a rain, we'd make a new one.

So on one sidewalk, I saw this one road/highway/ It just weaved back and forth, nothing else was there.  And do you think i made sure as I went, I walked right along with that road/highway?


You're damn right I did.
