a front door, a message, and a yard, in support of ukraine and the pollinators
—
one of the reasons i love walking so much
is for the surprises waiting to be discovered along the way
when walking through the neighborhood
i travel with eyes wide open
people are so creatively expressive
flower pot art
a snake in the grass
smiling and made of latex, upon closer inspection
a front yard mini vineyard
a tiny village

Nice spots around the neighbourhood. Nothing at all like that to see in Beetley.
Best wishes, Pete.

The human parts of my walks are fun, yes, but I prefer the dunes. You never know who you’re going to meet.

Most of my poems have their thought’s original beginnings during my walkies with Frankie, where I observe and take many photos along the neighbourhood pathways

I love the yellow/blue front door. But with my HOA, you won’t see such individuality around here.

I love when people set out things around their homes to bring a smile to others just walking past. So many little kindnesses everywhere..if we just open our eyes.

Hi Beth, would you mind at all if I e-mailed you a few questions about your trip to Costa Rica? We are seriously considering going with the tour group you went with but I would love to bend your ear a little if that’s ok. Also, could you send me the name of the tour again? It looks just like a tour we would be compatible with. Thanks so much! Chris
