walking partners......

ok, so i walked 2 miles at lunch with someone i met at a committee meeting......walking is such personal event that walking partners must be carefully screened.....and i do believe that this person will be just fine for mondays.....i counted no fewer than 5 safe topics of conversation......and that is a lot to ask of someone i just met through work........and now i can at least walk safely at the park......safety is a concern because of the remoteness of the walking path......it circumnavigates the park......and the back section is not visible from the front due to terrain.......i do get the feeling that politics will never be on the table for discussion....but i can live with that........
