Walkies
My department decided to have a walking competition. My boss happened to mention the idea to his boss, and next thing we know, all the departments in our division are having a walking competition. Pedometers have been purchased and handed out and we started officially this morning at 9 am.
I therefore took the long way home, that is, detoured around Ortuvann. The weather was crisp and clear and no rain was forecast, so I expected a nice walk.
I was rather fascinated by the light and the white. I saw a swan sleeping in the water, too. And then it started to hail - fine, little grains.
I have never been bare-headed or without an umbrella when it hails before, so I made a new discovery: It tickles my scalp.
I stopped by the local grocery store and bought milk and made another discovery: Hail in hair melts and drips everywhere.

Paula, I used to walk where I lived in L.A. Sidewalks aren't as nice as a gravel trail, but walking's always pleasant.
Alice, that's actually my cameraphone. It tends to have a blue cast. I need to adjust that photo to do the light justice. The light was an odd rust-color.
Let's just say that the day before a bit test, I generally take about 3000. So, I've gained weight in school!
