It means there's an erosion problem. We have specific tastes in literature and they hard to find in small regional libraries, too.<br /><br />Pixel Peeper, I envy your walks except in the summer.<br /><br />vanilla, Yes, sometimes it gets a bit severe.<br /><br />magiceye, Your location is so exotic to me that I would probably keep walking until I dropped from exhaustion.<br /><br />Elephant's Child, At least my office has a window. I am always curious so I have to stop and see what books are there.<br /><br />Linda, It was enjoyable, wasn't it?<br /><br />Cat Lover, In the summer it is quite a popular place to get a little fresh air and sunshine. Or lake fog.<br /><br />Diane, Make sure the house is all done before you get distracted. You've got too much invested to quit.<br /><br />Shammickite, It is good to have a nice place to walk in the winter. I might join our local Y for a bit this winter for just that reason.<br /><br />jenny_o, Yes, that is red osier dogwood, a favorite treat for the local moose population. The lake has a bit of influence on local weather, but not anything like an ocean does to yours.<br /><br />Janie, I have seen much nicer outhouses, though. Ottertail Lake is only about 7 or 8 hours southwest of here in another beautiful lake-infested part of the state.<br /><br />Sioux, That would be the local lost and found at that little library.<br /><br />angryparsnip, A pocket park seems like a terrific idea! I could make a few right here on the farm that could be really lovely. I had better sharpen the mower blades this winter.<br /><br />JACKIESUE, Thanks!<br /><br />Silver Willow, It is a delightful neighborhood with some very nice people residing there. I do know a few of them at least.<br /><br />Debra, I think the weather this weekend will be conducive to another walk down that road. Maybe I'll start from the other direction this time.<br /><br /> Jonohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18170214396483091419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5108355111065091083.post-82591926615634551562017-11-28T08:35:13.743-08:002017-11-28T08:35:13.743-08:00There's nothing quite like a nice leisurely wa...There's nothing quite like a nice leisurely walk, is there?

I have thought long about putting one on my land/road but I live in an out of the way street.<br />I am thinking of having a tiny pocket park. I would have to get the ok from my association and or the county. I have it all designed out. Maybe after the first of the year I might look into this.<br /><br />cheers, parsnipangryparsniphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17236094827257446781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5108355111065091083.post-10467306922944556052017-11-27T19:02:48.737-08:002017-11-27T19:02:48.737-08:00Jono--

I think, but all of them are interesting. Yeah, walking will soon be an issue here as well. You guys really get winter rolling early, though, don't you? You go-getters, you!! <br /><br />There have been times I've driven someplace else so I can walk, too, but it's usually to have a change of scenery. It's kind of a pain but it's better than not walking.jenny_ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15475480579733466963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5108355111065091083.post-71863735173636442362017-11-27T12:32:44.001-08:002017-11-27T12:32:44.001-08:00Nice walk along a nice neighbourhood.

However our local Soccer City indoor soccer facility hosts walkers every morning from 8am to 10:30 am where we can walk in the relative warmth on a cushioned field. No free libraries available there, but I pass one on my way home.Shammickitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11969803866899076638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5108355111065091083.post-55165975893749222322017-11-27T10:39:16.297-08:002017-11-27T10:39:16.297-08:00What fun to have a tour of your 'hood!
