There are times I go for these super long walks that take multiple hours and my feet cross miles upon miles. Not hikes like I used to do when I was climbing across mountain ranges for days on end. But really they're just super long walks.
Walking 6 or 7 miles doesn't even bother me. I spend the time just putting one foot in front of the other, snapping pics of wildflowers, wildlife, or water scenes of all different kinds, and breathing. The hours disappear and before I know it its well past noon.
I live in a tiny, quiet town called Townsend MA. People here are overly friendly and super nice, and I don't often meet too many people that I'd consider as bad people. Though I have met a few.
I've been going out super early on the weekends the last 4 weeks. The first time was just a thing I did because I was up super early and bored. But now, I'm doing it on purpose just because of the air and the way it smells. You see, there are lilac bushes everywhere and stretches of pine tree forests throughout. White lilacs and blue, and pink and the traditional purples... The way the air smells here in the morning is like nothing I've ever really been used to my entire life, and I can't help but to say..., I love it ! I mean I really LOVE IT !
Having grown up in a city space and remembering the air there from more than half a lifetime, this town is like something so out of the ordinary when it comes to air quality.
I can walk this town for hours. Especially in the early morning before any traffic ramps up. Being out there alone and with no one around with the late summer air filling my senses....
It's a manner of bliss that I just did my best to explain and I know my words aren't conveying it well enough. I'm already looking forward to next weekend.
I've tried multiple times to change this from the "MILDLY ADULT" label, but the site keeps it labeled that way, There's nothing MILDLY ADULT about this post at all and the label has me perturbed....
