Observations/Thoughts

• Sweating: Today allowed a nearly forgotten concept to re-enter the vocabulary–sweat.  It was not terribly humid.  However, a few sweat beads originating at my temple made their way down my face.  In a few weeks, it won’t be just a few!
• Pause:  One point on the path involves crossing the street.  I have grown used to the idea of just waiting until the traffic passes.  Today, a car insisted on stopping to let me cross.  I felt a little badly.  While I was looking the other direction calculating when the cars might allow me to “frogger” through, this nice guy may have waited a couple seconds before realizing his kindness.  Once I did, I hustled across quickly.  I through up my hand a couple of extra times to thank him for his generosity.
• Dump:  As I was coming towards the end of the walk, there is a dispenser of green doggie bags.  The gentlemen standing there pocketing a few bags was walking two dogs.  As he continued walking, the dogs were not allowing him to move very quickly and they were not doing a very good job staying on their side of the sidewalk.  Just as I was preparing to pass, one of them was creating an occupant for one of the bags.  When I yelled out, “That is what you are out here for.”, he couldn’t help but agree.
