Today’s Walk 1.019

When:  Late afternoon
Weather: Blue skies with mid-30’s
Observations/Thoughts

  • Frogger:  My walk is virtually all sidewalks or walking along the side of the road.  I cross one road twice.  Usually, it is pretty easy to cross the road.  Somedays, it is reminiscent of the old Frogger game.  I had to time both of my crossings today.  I was just dodging cars.  There were no logs or streams.
  • Running dog:  After playing Frogger the second time, I heard a likely jogger coming behind me.  Not only was it a jogger, but she had her dog.  I moved to the grass to allow her to more easily maintain her jogging speed.  She did give me a “thank you” after she passed.  I think her dog was wrestling with the leash.  Her running speed was erratic as she ran/pulled the dog along with her.
  • Lost car:  As I was walking out of Walmart, I was easily finding my car.  Problems in the past have forced me to be very deliberate in remembering where I park.  As I neared my car, I looked to the right and saw the a cart with a driver wearing the “look”.  Can I call it Wandering Eye Movement (WEM)?  As the lost driver was walking between rows of cars, the head was making near frantic movements trying to find her car–the car wasn’t lost; it knew right where it was.  Apparently, the remote trick was not working OR she was so far from being in the correct row, the remote did not have a chance.  My shout to her of “I hate that.” did not seem to impress.  She was still wandering the lot as I drove off.
