Morning post... there will be more later:
I woke up early this morning when I wanted to sleep in. Watched some hiker videos. Reminded myself that I need to walk more. Reminded myself that one of the things I wanted to do on the trail was to come up with some kind of poem/rhyme every day. Last night, driving home looking at the sky, I had words I wanted to write and was driving so I couldn't. I should have. It all sounded so much better in my head than what I typed into the blog last night. I've been reading a book on poetry writing and it recommends writing things down and editing later. My things are generally fluff and off the cuff. I don't expect to win any prizes, they are just for fun and to get out some of what goes on in my head. But the big thing is that I should be practicing more. I'd love to add a rhyme a day to my happy a day but I know that is too much to ask of myself right now. There may be rhymes coming though. Readers, you are forewarned. 😉
Here is the 'more later:'
After writing the above I slowly got myself moving towards taking a walk. By the time I was ready my son-in-law and Gideon were up too and wanting to get out of the house. They were going to walk around the city and try to find a bunch of the Bicycle Art on display. So we all went walking. We grabbed some food while we were out and meandered around town. Below are way too many pictures.
And the Vlog:
All in all today was a good mellow day. It was fun wandering around and exploring the city. I went down some side streets I hadn't gone to yet. I had what could be a great business idea if I follow through with it, but I doubt I will. Today was filled with many happy moments. My happy for today will be this rhyme:
Put on your hat
Where's the sunblock?
We do need that
It's time to walk
Down to Main Street
We'll leave the car
Just use your feet
It's not too far
To see the bikes
With hair and spoke
For little tykes
To make a joke
With moss or horn
Blue, red or gold
Flowers adorn
Some new, some old
Dinosaur rides
On a red trike
Bikes on all sides
Which do you like?
Window shopping
And for relief
Yummy topping
At Orange Leaf
Back to mundane
Call it a wrap
We're home again
Time for a nap
