On Today’s Walk: Thanksgiving Edition

Today’s walk involved a fortunate discovery. The spouse and I are visiting some of his family in Oklahoma and staying in a hotel. I really wanted to make sure and get a walk before over—um, eating. Just eating.

Oh, hey, look at this park *right behind* the hotel!

Cement walkway through park. Small trees here and there. Blue sky.

The attractive gentleman below was a value-added component I brought to the experience. Notice anything in the sky? A lot of planes going through the air today.

Man walking on sidewalk, visible in profile. Many jet trails in mostly blue sky.

I maybe have mentioned a time or twenty on this blog that I always enjoy a little footbridge.

Such a sunny day, even the littlest critters around are casting shadows.

Just noticing the details of the world around is a good gratitude practice. Happy Thanksgiving, all!

I live in Missouri, a more beautiful place than many realize. I love writing, reading, walking, bicycling, and making lists. I’ve written poetry since I was seven. A few years ago I branched out into short fiction and memoir pieces. I also perpetually have a novel in progress. My brain pursues ideas at a brisk pace, wandering all over the map. This blog represents one of my efforts to keep up with it.
