I walk where I live and it's semi-remote. I tell my friends that I haven't peed indoors for over 15 years. However, each morning before dawn, as we shuffle down the gravel, there is an ever increasing strange glow in the horizon. I don't know if it's urban sprawl or suburban crawl or whatever, but it's getting larger and closer.
I really don't think about it much and I guess I'm willing to share the planet. The sprawl is not necessarily bad or good it just is. Actually, I think more about how in the world anybody can afford to pay that electric bill.
My friend The Commissioner calls me a depression baby.
Generally, I'm walking uphill or downhill. I prefer flat but I can't find much. I envy those folks that walk in flat circles at the Y but I can't bring my dogs to the gym 'cause the taste of lycra is much too rich for them.
It's best while walking uphill to stand tall and look down the road. Walking downhill is different. I let gravity be my friend and use as little energy as possible without turning into the Scarecrow from Oz.
