Today we finally had afternoon temperatures comfortable enough for a walk, so my husband and I headed out in our neighborhood for a look around. When I walk alone, I usually fall into a kind of meditative state...aware of sounds, breeze, birds and the like. With him, it was different. We looked at construction, speculated on markers - whether there would be more homes going in, lot splits. Noticed new garages and porches going on. Met a brand new neighbor and visited about the challenges of getting her lot graded properly for drainage. And found out her parents are moving into an existing home near us. Most fun stroll we've had since the Covid lockdown.
