We had to have our car at B&B Automotive by eight this morning. We were past due on inspection and way past due for an oil change. Peggi mentioned the brakes making noise and and sure enough they found our front brakes needed replacing. They told us it would take a couple of hours.
We usually walk to and around Seneca Park while they work on the car. Sometimes we’ll cross the river on the walking bridge and sometimes we just walk around the lake in the middle of the Frederick Law Olmsted designed park. Today we walked along the trail on the eastern edge of the zoo. There is a huge wooden fence that keeps the animals in and people out but occasionally there is a knot hole in the boards. I took this photo through one of them. Peggi made a video through another. The animals could hear us but not see us. We had a conversation.
We continued on the trail past the zoo. There was someone in the woods to our left either preaching or having a very loud conversation with himself. It didn’t sound like English. Beyond the park we hugged a trail along the edge of the river. The gorge is so wild, such steep drop offs at the edge of the trail and no guard rails. I imagine it looks just like it did when this land belonged to the Native Americans. We circled back on the other side of the park and zoo and picked up our car. A second cutoff coffee was waiting for us.
