Just Strolling About in The Plague Year



Blue picked up a Shadow Wolf on the way to the Pick 'n Steal this morning. A ferocious beast and I'm glad he's an ally.




And I wasn't complaining about the trees either, takes the edge right off the heat.




Not that it matters at First Methodist because they're shut, for fear the Bat Bug will kill them all. Which it hasn't, fortunately.




Blue enjoys his spot at the PNS, where he sits tethered to the always empty Star Telegram box. Why is it empty? Because no one wanted to buy the rubbish newspaper so the order wasn't kept up, but the box remains, a dusty, dystopic warning to the "press."




Behold the misbegotten debris of the modern age!




And needless to say, First Baptist decided to make war on their ancient enemy, the trees. And now a once leafy boulevard sits baking under a harsh Texan sun. Good work, guys. Get rid of all the shade.




We detoured around the Meth Shack to visit Genius Patrol. GP are two dogs who live in someone's back yard and bark insanely at anything which goes by. Sometimes I talk to them, they bark back.




Then it was back to the Compound, mission accomplished. And that, fellow boulevardiers, is the story of that.

God bless,

I hope you didn't step on any of those cracks.

Kid, caveat.

Banner and I do two walks a day. He isn't a barker but we seem to stir up the neighborhood dogs as we pass.

Two walks is a good rule, WSF, imo, though lately it's been one for me. I should probably change that up, and I will.
