Mac was ready to go. Mac makes me walk very fast. That's why I like to take him. He doesn't fool around much. He just keeps his head down and goes.
This is my car. But we're not taking the car, remember? We're walking.
This is the way we are headed.
There is a stop sign at the end of the block. You are supposed to stop here and look down. There is the sewer. When it rains, it overflows with putrid, festering sewer water. It also causes a river to flow down our side of the street. Which makes for a long jump to get into my car.Hey! That's my shadow! And Mac's!
Lots of people walk their dogs around here. Some nice people hang up these empty laundry detergent bottles full of plastic bags in case your dog punches a grumpy in their yard. Mac carries his own bags on his collar. We don't need these free bags.
So on we go. Walking, walking, walking. Oh, here's something kinda cool. People put their handprints in the cement.
Some people let their flowers just grow out over the sidewalk. But me and Mac...we don't mind.
This house is for sale. Price reduced. Interested? Ok, you can't actually see the house, but are you interested? Because I can go back and take a picture of the house if you insist.
Oh look! Another stop sign! F loves F. Ohhhh la la.
Now we are at the Church at Montview. This where we turn and head West.
This is Mac's favorite stretch of grass. You will see why.
Remember, Mac carries his own bags so don't get all fussy and freak out. We didn't leave anything on the holy church lawn. Mac thinks he did, though and that's all that matters. Watch Mac go. Go, Mac! Go!
This bike has been sitting here for at least a week. It's cute. I hope no one takes it. Oh look out! Road work ahead. I hope I don't get in their way. Or bother them.
Here's another artsy photo...It's all in black and white except for the sign. Get it?
Well, that went over so well, here's another one.
At the corner of one house is a little library box. It's called Little Free Library. You can take a book and you can leave a book. On this trip, I left 2 books...Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim by David Sedaris and Cider House Rules by John Irving. I didn't take a book because I'm already reading one.
This isn't my car, but if it were...
I would want it to look like this:
Well here we are back home. And look! Lisle is waiting for us!
