So instead, some photos from this morning's walk (4.5 miles!), views which distracted me momentarily.
The weather was slightly different from that of the past two mornings. The color of the light had shifted, and the ocean (including fishing boats) was enveloped in an eerie haze...
Some parts of my neighborhood remind me a little bit of the Mediterranean. Or is that just me wishing I could be strolling the narrow streets of Palma, Mallorca again, this time with a lover to be named later...?
But it's also a nice neighborhood -- and was a nice day -- for peacocks...
And if Buick Rivieras must die, what better place for them to meet their end?
Even when I'm sad, it's a pretty place.

Very pretty! I miss color...sigh. We have a strom coming in two days...yippee me. *grins* have a good evening. T
Your neighborhood is beautiful. Mine, on the other hand, is old and run down, and we have flocks of pidgeons instead of beautiful peacocks.
Congrats on the 4.5 miles! I'm lucky to make it 4.5 blocks. Well, I am a bit scared to walk here, but that's another story altogether.
The peacocks were a surprise to see. I thought they only lived in the gated communitie - R.H. Estates....
Congrats on the 4.5 mile walk! Looks like it was an enjoyable outing for you.

H -- Peacocks don't worry about trivia such as gates. I understand some of the locals near where this photo was taken are not happy to have the pesky (and noisy) things wandering around.
Someone should fit them with saddles so large, pampered cats could ride them.
Peacocks? Are they wild?
Kim -- Depends on what you mean by "wild," I suppose. Haven't heard of anyone being attacked by packs of predatory peacocks, but they wander around at will and no one owns 'em....
The peacocks are cool! It looks lovely. I hope you are feeling happier soon. It sucks to be down, and you are too much of a sweetheart for that.

That top photo is gorgeous. 4.5, Wow! You are out walking me. You will be across the country before you know it.
japee -- we have to get you and your camera out here to really show this place off right!
That first picture of the ocean is positively eye-stopping. I'd love it for a wallpaper.
P.S. I'm glad you're home and able to walk about. Sorry I've been too busy to spend any extra time on the puter and visit your little corner of the web.
When I look at the large version of the top picture the contrast of moos from bottom to top is striking.
I'm digging these recent photos a lot.
Peacocks and old cars waiting for death...such a range of scenes in your neighbourhood.
It's good to see you're out walking, recovery is a good colour on you - maybe you don't need my cinemax photo after all ;)
I can walk a couple of miles if I have to, don't know if I could do 4 miles in one go.
Tha Buick isn't dead yet, it's just resting. It needs someone with a few thousand dollars to wake it up.
