Peaceful feeling above. I look in all directions while I walk the neighborhood blocks because I never know where I’ll find my inspiration to stride onward.

Rock it! These gnomes certainly look at home inside this rock circle.

It’s their season. I spy a boat ready to be hauled to the water.

Not just one. Dandelions tend to hang out together, I decide.

Winner, winner. I find the first folks to put out their garbage cans on this particular neighborhood walking route. And I think of putting ours out when I get home …

Happy season. I appreciate the way these folks express their joy for spring.

Straight away ready. Some parts of this neighborhood stroll are just begging for me to go a little faster.

Mental landmark. Fittingly enough, my halfway point on this neighborhood walk route falls at a well-marked cross street. Onward I go after the quick iPhone photo capture.

Proud block. Two houses down from yesterday’s flag and pole, there still was no breeze as I walked past another flag.

Centerpiece. Some walking days feature no breeze at all, as demonstrated by the prone position of our flag on this pole.
