Information Overload

 One of the reasons for my twice-a-day walk is to escape from the information overload. I walk in two parks. It's a routine. There are just a few things that are different on any of my walks and I try to focus on them.

Today when I entered Robsion Park I noticed that the City of Lyndon had removed the most of the tree that fell the other day leaving only a stomp.

On a usual day where that would be the only new thing, I notice that would be enough for me to contemplate and write a blog post. 

But the late spring is finally awaking and not in a way we portray in fairy tales when suddenly everything starts awakening and growing and everything goes forward. It is more like one step forward, one step back, two steps forward, one step back...

They say if you don't like the weather in Kentucky don't mind, tomorrow will be different anyway. And it changes even more frequently. I'm walking all alone in the rainy park at noon and then with many people in the sunny park in the afternoon. 

The people cannot wait for the better weather. Any time it reminds us of what the real spring looks like the people are back. I see guys playing basketball, some baseball, and some other soccer. I see walkers, joggers, and runners. I see kids riding bicycles, push scooters, and electric scooters. I hear cacophony made out of human conversations. I can hear English, Spanish, Hindi... It is overwhelming.

I recognize some frequent park visitors (at least frequent when the weather is nice). I say hello to them.

I'm writing this post after a week. Not because nothing was going on and I could not write about anything but instead because too much was going on and I could not focus on one thing and write about it.
