A walk home

Whew — wow, what a week. I’d definitely rate the conference a success. Bigger and badder than ever before. And, so far as I can tell, most people fell in love with the baby, too ๐Ÿ™‚
To bring a long week to a close, I decided to walk home today. Something I think I’ve done maybe once before. It was raining, but who’s afraid of getting a little wet? You were born that way. I hope.

  1. very cool post .. completely different perspective on where you live .. walking allows for seeing a lot that driving would just pass by..

    lotsa pictures yay!

  3. Davin: Totally. At first, I just wanted to take a picture of the flowers you see in the top picture — but as I went along I realized I was noticing all sorts of things I had never seen before.
    Shy: Glad you like them ๐Ÿ™‚

  4. It is quite a pleasant walk; though we normally do it at night … and only to Starbucks and back. I like how you captured the reality of the stroll … on a bright sunny day the lens would have grabbed a completely different mood. I like the collection.

  5. Thanks ๐Ÿ™‚ All of the shots were taken within a 50-minute time period, which is a big part of why the mood seems so consistent.

    You should go for more walks. These days I make the effort to walk home from places like downtown, fernwood, or whereever else that’s far away. Very satisfying. You oughta try walking back here to Vic ๐Ÿ˜‰

    P.S It’s the mark of a true islander to enjoy the rain like that. Umbrellas are for those who shouldn’t be out there anyway!
    I never get sick from getting soaked!
