Meeting people
Yesterday morning, while Joan and I were walking our usual walk near the river, we saw two people she knows from work. First, Frances who is a Dean rode her bike by and greeted us. We see her a lot because she bikes to work like Joan and she is usually punctual in that she's riding by around 8am (Joan obviously works a different schedule than that!).
Then this guy I've never met came by and stopped his bike. He said he thought it was us - he knows me through my blog! His name is Terry and he's not usually on our route but he told us he dropped his car off for service and was riding into work. That's creative and good exercise! Terry also works with Joan - he knows all about math education.
Of course, we also see other people and dogs we know but don't actually know their names - like the woman who lives in the big white house and has at least 2 greyhounds (who are VERY well-behaved and majestic). We also see the man and his yellow labrador. For some reason, I usually go crazy barking at that dog - I don't know why.
It is always fun to go on walks! It' getting hotter though so I'm slowing down and also drinking lots of water when we get back to the house.
