Susannah, I love your observations, also your clever blog titles. I felt like I was strolling right along with you. Of course if that was true I’d scare everyone and everything away. I got up late and haven’t made myself human yet, ha ha!

I’d been trimming my own hair since Covid began and I looked it. I finally got a professional cut yesterday afternoon and it feels soooo good. There is a reason I’m not a hair dresser, bad things happen when scissors get in my hands.

Thank you for the lovely walk this morning. I’m glad Orson was in control of his dog.

Oh yes, Orson was the epitome of control alright. He thought very highly of himself.

And I can absolutely see you sitting there on the steps of the Met, knife in hand, creating slices for a family of birds who no doubt would be shouting out their size preference if they could talk.
As for good old Orson, I listened to his classic War of the Worlds radio episode prank not all that long ago. Talk about quaint. And yet, utterly brilliant, as was the man himself.
Now you have me craving pizza.

What a lovely stroll, Susannah. Love your total mindfulness as you went about your walkabout. Almost missed this post as i had to resubscribe after a most harrowing email experience. I don’t use The Reader so to get your posts, I get them by email… And my email was taken away, after thirty years, no less, because I changed internet providers. I never thought of it and I kinda wish the new provider had given me a heads up… service. Can’t have it nowhere!

There’s so much cyber shifting right now, it’s unsettling. I saw your new photo and thought, could there be two Dales? Well, as far as I’m concerned, there’s only one. And as for my walkabouts, and what a great term that is, if only you were there, photographing it all, then they’d stroll for posterity. 🙂

It is unsettling. Since I had to change everything adding my new email address, I thought what the hell… Oh, one of me is more than enough 😉.I love that term – ever since I heard the Aboriginal Aussies take them as a right of passage. And yes, I would have tried to capture some of it!

Susannah, I so enjoy your walkabouts…I feel them and picture the incidents along the way in my mind. The tea and crumpets were loverly thoughts of ‘the Penguin’…wouldn’t that be loverly? Your times in the park always make me think of a line Burl Ives sang…”Oh they birds and the bees and the cigarette trees – Big Rock Candy Mountain. You put me in a happy place with your walkabouts. It’s such a beautiful place to be…be happy, Hugs ‘n Sweets!
