    Since I no longer live in the boonies, I’ve been walking to places as much as possible because I enjoy it.
    OK. I admit it. That was a lie. It’s hot and gross outside. I hate walking places. I only do it because Sarah makes me. I’m not joking. There are only two people in the world who power over me: Samantha & Sarah. But because they love me, they don’t ever use that power… until now! Sarah makes me walk around the lake or walk to and from one of the places I have marked on the map.
    The big red trail is the basic walk I do in the mornings. It goes around this big lake we have behind our neighborhood. Sarah loves to run around it or ride her bike around it. I have no idea how far it is distance wise but Sarah says it takes us 26 minutes to walk around it.
     The purple path is how I get to Safeway when I walk. Sarah and I did that last night so that I could buy some bananas and a few other odds and ends that weren’t heavy to carry. I don’t know the distance for this either but Sarah says it takes 12 to 14 minutes to walk there and the same to walk back.
    The green path is how I walk to the library. I’ve been going there about every other day because I’ve been getting so many non-fiction books and graphic novels.
    The blue path goes to a co-op. It’s basically a grocery store, but with more organic and natural stuff. Then right next to it is an artsy movie theater. Right now, “Little Miss Sunshine” is playing there. I’ll probably walk there this weekend and see it by myself since Sarah is going home and I’ll have nothing to do.
