Another Walk in the Park

We went to breakfast this morning with our friends as usual. Judy was with us again, sounding much better than last week, so we are glad for her continuing recovery. She decided not to walk in the park after breakfast, a smart move since it was damp and chilly.

We stopped by Green Gate Grove to pick up Sandy to join us on our walk. It was overcast, but not unpleasant in the park. We didn't see very many birds, but Sandy spotted some coyotes at a distance on the road ahead. We've been noticing a lot of coyote scat on the road, a change this year. The coyotes used to stay mainly to the east of here, but we did see one in the park last year.

Later we watched a Peter, Paul, and Mary 50 year retrospective special we had recorded. It was a reminder of some great music and social activism. The trio supported the anti Vietnam war movement, civil rights, farmworker rights, and work for the homeless. Their music and some of the other folk music of the 60s is part of the soundtrack of my teen and early adult years.

Ken watched a Star Trek movie, Undiscovered Country. Of course he has seen it before, but he always enjoys watching any of the movies or reruns of TV programs. I have a definite fondness for the first generation cast.
