Here are my thoughts in 15 words or less:

– It’s my first walk of 2009. May there be many more like this one.
– It was a cool and crisp morning – but not as frigid as my last walk.
– I walked for 43.2 minutes, so I walked about 2.3 miles.
– I know that because I walk a mile in roughly 18.5 minutes.
– Every duck in town was out and about searching for food.
– An adorable gray and white cat crossed my path.
– He or She knew that I was a friend of felines – not a foe.
– Some of the dumpster areas actually smelled good.
– That’s because they were a dumping ground of old Christmas trees.
– There was a devastating fire in a condo unit a few blocks away from mine.
– I don’t know when it occurred but I’d guess perhaps several weeks ago.
– The entire second floor unit is gutted and condemned.
– I don’t think that any of the three adjoining units were damaged.
– We have amazing firewall protection here in-between condo units.
– I know that first-hand due to a roof fire right next door to my unit.
– That was perhaps a dozen years ago.
– When I moved here in June 1995 I didn’t know if I would like it.
– I love this neighbourhood. I plan to stay here indefinitely.
– I love Homestead Florida more now than ever before.
– I love my Life. Thank You God for giving me a second chance at it.
