a different to walk ~ instead of Dallas Road,
Willows Beach in Island winter welcomes dogs and their masters
We walkers stay up on the sidewalk to stride out our allotted time before meeting friends for coffee.
Turning around, it's back up the sidewalk, then into a side road along a quiet lane; beneath a grand old tree snow drops shyly nod at passersby.
Cappucinos, tea and lattes with friends at Kate’s Cafe in the Oak Bay Beach hotel rounds out a pleasant morning. Remembering our many conversations after our walks, I know that we women have learned a little more of life, because we are able to be involved in the life of our time.
“I always feel so sorry for women who don’t like to walk;
they miss so much ~ so many rare little glimpses of life;
and we women learn so little of life on the whole.”
~ Kate Chopin, The Awakening (first published in 1899)
