Saturday morning walk

It's days like this that help me remember why life is worth living in the midst of 50/hr week drudgery, slave-debt, dysfunctional families and regressive states.

My walk started in Springdale Park, where an obviously happy doggie ran back and forth inside the fence at the boys choir building. A few kids were playing on the see-saw & merry-go-round a little further down. Squirrels eyed me with suspicion, some with breakfast in their mouths. Some birds sang and others silently watched as I walked by. The smell of honeysickle filled the woodsey area by the slightly polluted creek betwen Ponce & Freedom Park. The rest of my walk was less exciting. Maybe it was the blaring beeps of machinery & thick smell of asphalt and tar being poured onto Candler dr that killed my moment. Anyway. I'm home. I don't have plans to go anywhere or do anything today.
