"Not all who wander are lost"

Sorry in advance but this blog is pretty much about walking. I'll post one about my first day too for a little bit of substance but for now, let us mosey. I officially love walking! I really enjoy that Boston is such a walking town. I'm already developing the mindset that if something is a mile and a half away, you don't just hop in the car, you go for a little stroll. Granted, that's also probably because Boston driving is a sport in itself but it's so nice to just slow down a little bit and let my mind wander.

Yesterday I went and scoped out Kyle's future residence just so I could explore a new area and also perhaps warn him if he was about to rent a room in a brothel. Not the case, as far as I could tell.  Anyhow, it was about a 4 mile walk in total and the weather was PERFECT. It put me in the best mood and I actually started taking pictures of random flowers I found along the way. Who am I?? Here they are just in case any of you have also recently become aspiring horticulturists. They aren't greatest quality but I did manage to remain aware of how I looked to the people who own the lawns I was documenting so I was a little hasty.

 These were the coolest colored hydrangeas which you can't really see.

 Some sort of massive flowering bush that I stopped and sniffed for an awkwardly long time.

These cute things were growing on a tree.

Ok, I get this is a blog about walking and flowers so I'm going to wrap it up but I just wanted to share my new-found love of walks. I don't imagine I'll feel the same way in December. Fun fact, I was sitting here trying to think what you would call someone who loves walks and I tapped into my 6th grade Latin studies and thought "hmm...ped is relating to the foot and phile is relating to love sooo...." :-/
