“Anything is within walking distance if you have the time.”

-Steven Wright

When I was growing up, there was a lot of walking on tv and in movies.

Shows I watched had characters that spent most of the credits of the show walking somewhere.

Then, in the beginning of the episode, the main character walked into a new situation; hopefully, there wouldn’t be any trouble . . . this time.

Ultimately, the character did run into trouble, solved it tidily in a thirty minute or hour long increment and then walked away while the sad chords of loneliness underscored them.

I thought that walking away while sad music played was cool and dramatic.

Needless to say, walking has been and always will be my preferred mode of travel.

I’m not going to say I love walking and that it fills my soul but I will say that I am not afraid to walk anywhere or any distance . . . if I have the time.

Thank you for reading.
