My thoughts:
1. If you like to eat turducken then my neighbourhood is a farm. We have hundreds of ducks and a few assorted chickens and turkeys wandering around amongst the humans, canines, and felines. Most of them are friendly, but I have been chased by an angry duck before.
2. I encountered nice dogs (non-barking and non-growling) on my walk this morning. They were all being walked via their respective leashes by their nice owners. One lady who I shall refer to as ‘Nightgown Lady’ has become a recurring sight on my walk.
3. Don’t you hate it when you walk right through an invisible-to-the-naked-eye spider web ? While you’re pulling the web material off of you you’re also looking to ensure that there’s no spiders or any other bugs on you.
4. I wonder what my neighbourhood looked like back in 1986 when it was brand new. For a 22-year-old neighbourhood that got destroyed by Hurricane Andrew everything still looks rather nice around here.
5. I added another tenth-of-a-mile to my walk this morning and exceeded 1.4 miles in about 27 minutes. Maybe next week I’ll go for the gusto – 1.5 miles in 30 minutes.

Hi Kristina !
It’s so great to see you here on my blog. Stop by more often.
God’s Great Earth is beautiful, and I love all of his creations. I didn’t truly appreciate His beauty until after my Awakening. We learned this morning from Pastor Travis that Love replaces selfishness with selflessness. All you need is Love !
Brother O’Mine,
I can certainly empathize with you on the invisible spider web note. On several occasions here in “Critter Country” Texas, I have been mowing the lawn, only to walk DIRECTLY through a gigantic web, which was actually more like a SPIDER NEIGHBORHOOD rather than a Spider home.
Not only that, but I have discovered 2 BLACK WIDOW SPIDERS on different occasions “chilling out” in my front doorway just outside the house.

P.S. Buddy made a phone call to your local canine Neighborhood Association, and spoke with a Collie named Muffin, and a Labrador named Bailey. He told them to start being nicer to you, since you are Buddy’s Uncle.
