It’s Day 32 of the Papa’s Walk Challenge.

On Monday, I was sitting at the dining room table looking out the window and saw a friend walking by my house. I hadn’t seen her in almost two years and waved her to come inside.  Debbi told me that she takes regular walks on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and she happened to take a different route that day that brought her by my home. I’m so glad she did!

I have known her since we both were teenagers – our boyfriends (who became our husbands) used to be roommates.  She remembered Papa, and I explained the “Papa’s Walk Challenge.” We decided to walk together this morning and use the time to catch up. We took a two-mile stroll along the Redwood Shores Bay Trail and talked non-stop the entire time.

We saw a few Canadian Geese, ducks, and a robin, but the wildlife took a backseat to our conversation. The time flew by and since we both have a lot more to say – we’ll meet again next Wednesday for another walk.  I’m looking forward to that.  🙂
