Today

I Had Some Guests in My Popcorn Tree.

And Because It was 6:30AM

and I Was Stalling My

2 MILE Run,

I Took a Picture.

And Gave Them Names.

Then Did My Run.

The First Part was Yucky.

At Every Turn,

I wanted to GO HOME.

Then Came My Favorite Part of the Route.

I Think I shall Call it

"The Secret Garden" Part.

Because its along a High Wall

with Vines and Flowers Growing Down It,

and The Other side is Lined with Trees,

And I always Run Faster along Here.

Because I Love It!

And Then I Turned into the Sun Rise

and Loved It, too!

But then the Home Stretch Got Harder.

So I checked out that Shadow Running with Me.

It was a Nice, though Lop-Sided Conversation.

Apparently, They're Not Much for Talking as They Run.

Oh-Well.

Looking Forward to TONIGHT:

Book Club

A True Story.

Politics, History, and Russian Maffia To Boot.
