Good Walk

Posted by Stuart Cowen On 6:03 AM
By most standards it was a short walk at 5:30 am, but it was enjoyable. In my current state of daily inactivity I'll take that for Walk #1 in "Project New Us". I'm thankful for the cooler air and the newness that each morning brings. I was deeply breathing in great lungfuls of air and noticed the difference in temperature as we approached the wooded area of our neighborhood (the Pooch and I).

The world was quiet and still asleep. Front yard sprinklers woke up first and we got caught a couple of times in the crossfire. Jet playfully ran about shaking off the droplets and then rubbed himself in some lush St. Augustine grass in an attempt to dry off. A low rumble every few minutes punctuated the darkest part of the night as we live just a few miles away from D/FW Airport. 

Bathroom lights started to switch on as we rounded the last leg of our walk. Maybe a mile was covered, but like I said - it was enjoyable. I might take the car around the route to see exactly how far it was.
