You and y ours had quite a busy day and a lot of
walking. You did a great job sharing this with FS.
I would imagine it was quite an ordeal getting across
the street. I'm happy those from the college were well
behaved. I would think the gov't would have to make
the access on and off those platforms safer for those in
need. The pictures were all great.
Thanks for sharing, Jan

One of my daughters friends now lives in Australia. She said it took a minute to figure out the traffic patterns there. She is a hometown girl who grew up with two roads in town. Lol. I am enjoying learning about your country. Thank you for posting. Gretchen

This Part 2 of your book entitled, "Geoff's Ramblings" was well written rich in Theme and Imagery.
It also, read well and Flowed well with no Grammar Issues.
...
My Complete Synopsis:
The Adjective and Objective Contents were both Excellent and Exceptional while Descriptive Measures aligned Perfectly.
Thanks for sharing this and have a great day!

    Thanks Ricky, I felt like for some reason a lot missed these first time around. Perhaps during COVID??

It sounds so you and Louise had a very good day out. I am sorry that you can't hold the camera yourself anymore but I am glad that Louise is able to hold the camera and take the videos. Have a good day and may God bless you Patricia.

It seems that you have been an active and successful agitator for improved road conditions for pedestrians. It's good to hear that you and Louise are still able to get about.
I've not heard of Strava before. I must look it up. I just use the standard iPhone health app.

    Hi, mate. I was so thankful my bro in law set up Strava fo me. I had bought one of those wheel things to measure distance but the Strava is so much better. I got these out again as I was surprised so many missed them, the first time around perhaps due to COVID.

I enjoyed reading this account of your ramble in town. I can sense your joie de vivre! No disability can hide your civic consciousness and your sense of adventure. I like your observation of the little details in your journey. They add to the richness of your writing!

    Thanks very much. Some of these are getting a much needed re-airing, as I may have written them during COVID all over ages ago. More coming.

Very interesting. Smart to have her do the filming and to take the faster train. After your outing, bet you were glad you could. Good those kids wore masks and acted proper.

    I think Sydney Grammar might be an Anglican school (Chrch of England- Moderate Episcopal for you) I have always thought your Episcopal was similar to our "High Anglican..almost Catholic" here. We have "Low Anglican" here more evangelical but more A-Millenial than Pre-Millenial as we are. Thanks.

Its good to hear you two are continuing to be adventuring. Hubby and I are having to make adjustments as well. He now nerds a cane and I require a nap each day. Being an activist is still in ypur soul. Stsy safe and well.

    Thanks old friend. Good seeing you back again. Are you still "prosing" I seem to remember a book of yours I was following a long time ago?

I enjoyed this so much. I feel like I've visited with you for a little bit. You and Louise are so adorable. I'm glad the weather was fine for your outing... the skies are crystal blue! It's good to see you up and about with your new walker, and it gave me hope for things that improved your cheer. Being cooped up too long is never good for spirit, soul, and body. Thank you so much for sharing, and for the photos.
Sending you my best today as always,
Sal XOs.....

This piece on Geoff's Rambles is a nice capture of whatmight well be a casual trip which is enjoyed but forgotten. This is a great use of all the devices to make it an experience that informs, entertains, and archives. Nice.

    Ha I responded to this and it came up again! Thanks this is an Addendum to my main autobiography "The Little Dog That Wouldn't let go." Just in case the other response gets lost someone said I needed this book so I could get the other one finished.
