Today’s Walk: We’ve Been Discovered

Today is a Monday and usually Mondays are quiet and low key but not today. The usual shift change between groups of tourists doesn’t seem to have happened.

Today’s Walk: Celebrating the Weekend

Congratulations, we’ve all made it thru another week and have the weekend to look forward to. Because my walk was delayed until afternoon I left our dog Baxter at home. He always gives me such a heart breaking and sad look once he realizes he is being left behind. It’s hard to take but necessary …

Today’s walk: Another Week & Fun With Photography

Time seems to be flying by this week in particular. Having foggy mornings may have something to do with it. That or maybe it’s just my subconscious wanting to fast forward thru this Covid-19 chapter we are all stuck in. The fog cleared and the sun came out at 12:30 pm; almost like the switching …
