I’ve been for a walk…

Lynne Robinson, Hewitt, New Jersey

All the leaves are brown
and the sky is blue
I’ve been for a walk
with a dog or two

Okay, it’s not the Mamas and the Papas [California Dreamin’]. Not exactly. We’ve had the nicest weather over the past week so far, and it just begs me to get out of the house and enjoy. The trees are mostly done now but some still have some color. It’s not too hot, nor too cold. The sky is blue. The leaves crunch underfoot. We live close to Green Turtle Pond and I’ve been meaning to walk all the way down, which is a little over a mile down and back. Maybe it’s further than that. I’m horrible at judging distances. It’s a good walk for the dogs because once off the main road they can be off leash. And, I took my camera of course. After having such a disastrous time with my sock project I needed to do something that I know might just come out right: photos.

Are you ready to walk with us? Here is the road.

Comments:

okay, just remember that I told you I was terrible at judging distances. Rick went with me on the same walk over the weekend and took his GPS. It’s about 1.25 miles one way. So, I was a bit off!
