Good afternoon, dear reader! I’ve been away for quite some time, trying to get back into the swing of things. While I was gone, WordPress changed formats so I’m thoroughly confused. Therefore, if this post looks bad, isn’t centered or whatever……I’m sorry. I don’t do change well and I’ve had a lot of them thrown…
I’ve walked mostly without my camera these days, mainly due to the fact I have no internet but also because I’ve been trying to actually walk for fitness and that doesn’t really work out when you stop every 3 feet to photograph a mushroom, dragonfly or miscellaneous leaf. However, today was different. I wanted you to…
March blew in, literally, 3 days ago. Grabbing my camera in the late afternoon, I headed for the woods. Which were quite windy. Here is what I saw. Spring flowers and clovers alongside hay from the Fall. Such a contrast of color! Choo-Choo Train Tracks. I never noticed this before but I’m guessing the plates…
Texas is hot. And I know I said, repeatedly, last winter that I would not complain about the heat when it arrived. So I’m not. Complaining that is. I’m simply stating a fact in an exasperated voice while sweating and squishing fire ants with my index finger. It. Is. Hot. I put off walking until…
Christmas eve is a day I love. Christmas eve is spent at my grandparents, which is where I spent much of my childhood. I am joined there each December 24th by my aunties, uncles, cousins, my cousins children, my brother, sister, parents and pets of various species. We visit, cook, laugh, catch up and take…
As I wander about my blog I realize the “Wicked Walk” section is piling up rather quickly so I figured I better start dating the darn things. So I did. Wednesday September 3rd was cloudy, cool and rather lovely. I walked about 8:30 a.m. Here is what I saw. Wild Fruit. I think the first…
My walk was a bit different this past Wednesday June, 25th. I was (don’t laugh!) chicken sitting for a good friend so she could go on vacation with her family. Well, chicken sitting includes ducks, parrots, cockatiels, guinea pigs, 3 small dogs and 1 very large dog. So I took advantage of being someplace new…
This past Wednesday, June 18th 2014, I walked fairly early in the morning, while it was still cool. Here is what I saw. When I saw the tree below I immediately thought it looked like a woman at the OB’s office. Then I thought it looked like a woman having a baby. Or maybe a woman having a…
When I decided to start blogging one of the many pieces of advice I read was be sure and stay active. Since I don’t want to end up like my chickens with an extremely fluffy bottom, I’ve attempted to take this advice to heart. I used to be a runner. I ran about 40 minutes…
