Return of the lane Of course, many of you are familiar with the “lane” that leads back to our place. A former logging road slightly more than two kilometres in length, depending on the time of year it can be a fairly bouncy, jouncy, rough ride back to the house.
Me too. I used to do 16 k to half-marathons but that was a while ago. I’m in a winter slowdown but I was walking an hour or two a day till last fall. I’m hoping to do a 5-k at Ottawa race weekend this spring. Cheers to you and keep it up!
I can imagine the look of terror on that poor Amazon driver's face. Poor guy. Almost worth ordering something else just to have him come back!
I never enjoyed running - I did try it, but walking is more my speed. Seems to me you notice more that way. And I enjoy the silence of walking, the crunch of leaves or gravel under my feet.
Oh, I wouldn't torment anyone like that, Greta. Personally, I loved running when I did it, but then I was moderately speedy too, which made it fun. But I love walking again. You're welcome. There will be more walks along the lane in future. Thanks, as always, for reading.
I didn't know you previously ran, Ken. Lots of retired runners out there these days....I still may give it a try. I'm interested just to see if I still can.

Chuckie, what a great piece of writing. Your lead piece had me laughing, picturing you with the saw and the isolated driver. Keep 'em coming friend.
Thanks for reading, Shannon. It was comical: Buddy pulling up on a Saturday morning like that.

Thanks for taking me for a walk along your lane.

Nice read, Charles. Thanks!
Thanks, Shawn. I appreciate it.
I too did a lot of running in my 30s and 40s - not so much now. But I walk a lot. Enjoyed the read. Cheers

Ha love your lunch attack! I am sure they appreciated your passion for bratwurst.
