I don't usually walk down this far in the Summertime. Back down this way is the way back home. But we went for a longer walk when it was cooler out one morning. Other people were out with their dogs as well.
There was another of the metal tree's and bench that seem to be very popular around my neighborhood.
There's also a gazebo with a bench so you can sit and rest along the trail.
But along the way there were also homeless encampments or what was left of one.
And a homeless man sleeping in a chair next to his cart. I blurred his face for privacy.
Falcor was happy for a longer walk since it's been too hot even early in the morning to go very far.
What is the furthest you would venture away from home?
ReplyDeleteThis was actually the furthest I have walked away from home in years. I have Agoraphobia and it's hard to walk to far away but I'm trying to get out more.
DeleteThank you for taking us with you and Falcor. Hooray for cooler weather.
ReplyDeleteIt was nice this morning.
DeleteAt least they've tried to make it nice for you.
ReplyDeleteYes, this walking path is cleaned up by the city every once in a while and it's quiet for the most part.
DeleteIt does look nice!
ReplyDeleteIt's a nice place to walk around here.
DeleteExcept for the homeless, that looks like a very nice walking trail. I loved the tree benches and gazebo.
ReplyDeleteThe metal tree benches are very popular around here.
DeleteWow, they seem to be fond of metal trees and bushes in your area. Why not plant real ones? OK, no, don't tell me. They don't want maintenance issues?
ReplyDeleteIt was part of the beautification project and I guess they thought these looked nice enough to put them everywhere. lol
DeleteWe enjoyed seeing the sights with you!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear it.
DeleteCooler mornings are so nice! And those metal trees are kind of cool. I like that gazebo even better. Happy Friday, Mary! :D
ReplyDeleteThank you. I'm glad you liked the walk.
DeleteLove the metal trees. I'm glad you had an enjoyable walk.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteWay to go pushing the distance of your walks. Like you, my longer walks tend to be during the cooler months of the year. Always interesting things to see and people to meet along the way.
ReplyDeleteHave a good weekend, Mary!
I tend to get out more when it's cooler.
DeleteEnjoy those cooler mornings. We went from almost 100 to the 60s this week. And I am not complaining.
ReplyDeleteWe had one nice morning but next month will be better.
DeleteThank you for taking us on your walk too :)
ReplyDeleteSo good that the mornings are cooler.
All the best Jan
Soon it will be sweater weather.
DeleteThere a homeless problem throughout the United States, How sad.
ReplyDeleteYes there is.
DeleteI remember you showing those metal trees before. That's nice you had a cooler morning to go for a longer walk. That gazebo looks like a good place tor est in the shade along the trail.
ReplyDeleteIt's a nice rest place for sure.
DeleteMetal trees? How interesting. It must have been nice to get out in some cooler weather. Walking in heat is never fun.
ReplyDeleteYes we have a lot of these metal tree benches around here.
DeleteMetal tree benches? I've never seen these where I live in the Southern Tier of New York. Would seem to get hot very fast but they do look pretty. Thank you for taking us along on your walk - I hope you can try again in the near future as the weather moderates. I could walk in 100 degree weather when I was younger and more used to it, living in Texas and Kansas. We who read your blog will be happy to cheer you on. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteThank you. We have a lot of the metal tree's around here.
DeleteThese pictures are great! Almost like a trip down memory lane for me, I recognize a lot of these locations!
ReplyDeleteOh I bet you do. Pretty much the same around here.
DeleteThe walking path looks nice. The tree bench & gazebo are nice additions. Falcor must have love the longer walk.
ReplyDeleteHe always loves a long walk.
DeleteI guess the metal tree is growing on me
ReplyDeleteThey grew on me as well.
