@VNwalking, I am also impressed with you walking so far on your porch! I would say that you have clearly mastered the art of meditative walking, to be able to walk as far as you do in this manner!
Many years ago, with the assistance of all...
There is only one first time, first kiss, first blush,first time down the road...I've been thinking along of what your saying lately.
