Confessions of a Street Walker – part 25

It is possible that you have seen a rather peculiar woman walking around the streets of Hamilton over the last five years. If you have, I hope you gave a wave…because I am she.

I was walking in Dundas a couple of days ago and thought I would take you along. You can tell that I do not walk fast.

I started by parking at University Plaza. I had forgotten to eat breakfast and so thought I would try out the bagel place that I parked close to. They were open early and I ordered an egg salad bagel.

It was yummy but even more delightful was the conversation that I had with the gentleman behind the counter. I told him about my walking project and he asked me why I was doing it. I replied that I guessed that it was a promise that I made myself and that it’s good to keep promises. He replied that we sometimes will keep promises when we make them to others but not always when we make them to ourselves. He said that it was good that I am keeping a promise that I made to myself. It was such an encouraging conversation. Because my walk was so long I confess that I went back for lunch and had a BLT bagel. Yummy.

There were a number of interesting things that I saw on that chilly and occasionally flurryish Thursday morning. Here are some of them.

Another friendly feline that I confess that I wanted to scoop up and take home.

There has to be another like it somewhere.

Loved this bench. It was just at the corner. Not at a bus stop. Just a bench at the corner.

Especially liked the elf legs sticking out of the back of the car in the driveway.
Chatted with the neighbour. Seems to me that nice folks live in Dundas.

Someone who lived there said that people always stop to take pictures.
Love this work of art.

Another lovely lumpy tree.

I am enjoying Dundas very much. Thanks for coming along.
