Bright sunlight dancing off the water, chattering birds and golden warm air make the walk this morning near perfect.? Sonja has taken the long route; a lazy day stretches before her and there is no need to rush.? This is her absolute favorite place for a Sunday walk.? Summer homes along the river bank give it a cozy feel; abundant flowers, fancy bird feeders, cheerful garden knickknacks and the charm of the small houses keep her happily occupied as she walks the mile or two that connects this hidden back road to the main highway. A walker approaches in the distance, and Sonja feels a twinge of annoyance. It?s not her road, but still.? As he gets closer she sees he has headphones on, allowing a quick nod to be sufficient, and the road is hers again.
