Wednesday Hodgepodge at the Park
We do have a very nice walking trail around our apartment community, and some of it is park-like. There is a really nice park we can walk to, if we go about halfway around the walking path and scoot through a treeline. It's called Taylor Farm Park and it has a large circuit of paved paths and nice boardwalks that go around some wetlands. It's a pretty good birdwatching area, especially for waterfowl and wading birds. There's also a very fun playground there. I'm not sure we'll walk over on Thursday . . . it depends how late it is when I get home from work, I suppose.
Yes, I've been to Central Park, one time. My husband and I went on a day trip to NYC to hear our daughter's chorus sing at Carnegie Hall, so we spent the daytime exploring a bit, and did walk around Central Park. I knew it was big, but I didn't really understand the scale until we were in it. I would have liked to take a closer look at the statues, and maybe spend more time around that fountain (which I recognized from Enchanted) but the negative was that it was so crowded. Also, fun fact - there was a lumberjack competition of some sort happening in the park the day we were there! Anyway, I've seen it and I'm glad but I don't ever need to go back, to be honest.
There's got to be something, but I can't think what it would be. So I guess I'll have to leave this unanswered unless I get hit with some inspiration before I hit publish.
I CAN parallel park, and can do a pretty good job of it, but I avoid it as much as possible. Thankfully it's pretty rare that we have to parallel park around here, and I would rather drive around the block a few times or park an extra couple blocks away than parallel park!
Red is the only fall color I wear, and I don't wear ir all that often. I used to have a lot of russets and bronzes in my wardrobe years ago, when I kept my hair colored! Once I let my hair go gray, I also switched my wardrobe colors to mostly blues. And black. Black goes with everything. The warm colors were just not right at all with my very fair complexion and pewter or silver hair. In our home, I have browns and warm tans in my living room and some browns and burgundies as accents in the spare bedroom.
What era of history? Probably ancient and Biblical historical periods are most interesting to me, because it's the setting and context of the Bible, so understanding that adds extra insight to the stories and teachings. A majority of the fiction I read is historical setting, and I tend to choose novels set in the Regency or Victorian eras most often.
We went to the Twenty One Pilots concert on the weekend and it was awesome! Pretty sure we were the oldest people there who were not chaperoning anyone. Haha. I guess that could be a pretty good argument for us being the coolest old people ever!
On Sunday evening I was finally able to meet in person with a dear friend I've known for around twenty years online!
And finally, I need to apologize for being so tardy in visiting and commenting. I've been slower than usual to read other blogs and I'm embarrassed about it. If there was a way I could have another hour each day, that would be great. Or if I could do bloggy things during my lunch break.
How would you answer the Hodgepodge questions this week? Leave a comment and let me know!
