This old gal…
Made it her mission…to explore New Town…on foot…see the neighborhoods…check out the beautiful downtown…challenge that cholesterol…with some exercise…was a little wary…to walk alone…always felt safe in Old Town…but growing up me…remembers gossip…about New Town…miles away…on the river…the unknown causing an inkling of fear… But familiarity…breeds comfort…the beautiful stately homes lining the street to the sparkling water…waving to new neighbors…admiring the historical buildings housing local businesses…and then…there’s the unexpected greetings…those chalk drawings…cheering the walker on…encouraging her…lifting her up…telling her…to adopt…a cat… The women working in the church garden saying hello…waving with a smile…the young man heading to work…nodding a greeting to the old lady…walking by…and step by step…it’s easy to see…New Town…is no different…than Old Town…people are still people…seeing the good…holding it close…takes you that much closer…to being home… And that husband of mine…agrees…
