Around noon today I sat down, opened a book.
I’d taken a walk around Cardiff-by-the-Sea and had found a perfect shady bench in Glen Park.
Below in the distance people were darting about the basketball court shooting hoops. One person missed, madly whirled, lunged forward, fell back, reached, barely intercepted, passed, darted, jumped impossibly high, caught, shot again, swished, shouted happily.
Upon finishing a chapter, I got up and gathered my stuff. The bench I’d been sitting on had a plaque. “Gotta go, gotta ride.”
It felt like the perfect small poem.
I found six names on six empty benches.
Every word shined.

I live in downtown San Diego and love to walk around with my camera! You can follow Cool San Diego Sights via Facebook or Twitter!
I am enjoying your posts. My wish would be for a map to mark what to you have seen in an area, hoping to see it too.

That sounds like a lot of work! As of this moment I have 2768 posts, so that would be quite a project! I usually try to provide enough description so that with a little Googling the location where I walked or the place I visited can be ascertained.
