Already in my quest for change I have found new and exciting things to see. My first two adventures on my down days were to uncharted close-by neighborhoods where I found things I never knew existed. I now have an agenda. I copied a page from my Thomas Bros. guide and have highlighted the streets I have been on and intend to hit every accessible street in the city. This may take me years.
One day I found a hiking trail behind an entire neighborhood that I thought was just a street or two. The hiking trail will have to wait. It will take me three separate visits to cover just the new neighborhood alone. Neat houses on big lots with views that go for miles. All less than a couple of miles from my house. It's amazing what ruts we live in.
Another random journey uncovered a community garden. Really??? Again, only a mile from my house in a different direction. I entered and went down row by row checking out the different plots that each had it's own personality. Some were bursting with blooming flowers.
