The Loca hour
I took Loca for a walk today through the park and she hopped most of the way there. It’s amazing that the Crepe Myrtles are losing their foliage while there are new shoots of green all over the park. It’s winter – right? There were puddles of water everywhere because of the rains we have been having and the disappearing ferns that cover the live oaks were thick and caused the hirsute branches to look radiant green.
Across from the Peristyle they are building a new ampitheater. They’ve removed the tennis courts and plan to relocate them elsewhere to make room for this new addition.
As we were coming back out of the park, I thanked Loca for coming into my life and for constantly pulling me outdoors for these walks in the morning. I always say she needs them – and she does – but I need them too and so she helps give me a convenient excuse for our morning walks.
