We go to the circle K up the street sometimes and we walk around the block.  But, tonight, I decided to go on a long walk.  We were gone for 2 hours and it was great.  We practiced some commands and Charlie is really doing well.  He is such a good dog.  Downtown, there are a bunch of statues of people and animals.  Charlie took quite an interest in many of them and let out a growl.  We met a man who was sitting at a park bench and stopped to talk to him for a while.  We looked in all the shop windows and discovered some new shops that were not there the last time we walked and some others that were going out of business.  I have always loved walking on Main Street in Anytown, USA.  There seems to be something about it that is nostalgic to me.  I remember when I lived in Escondido, CA.  I loved walking down there.  It was small, but it was so nice to walk late at night when the shops were closed, or on a Saturday when the street fair was happening, or early in the evening when the French Restaurant was still open and I would go there for coffee and french desert.  I love the atmosphere on a small town Main Street.  The moon was beautiful tonight and the air was perfect.  I have been stuck at a skip in the record lately, but I think it is time for me to reorganize the things that are really important.<\/p>\n\n<!-- Quick Adsense WordPress Plugin: http:\/\/quickadsense.com\/ -->\n<div class=\"ddac3911c67bc0e3db301fc01952e3bc\" data-index=\"1\" style=\"float: none; margin:10px 0 10px 0; text-align:center;\">\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\r\ngoogle_ad_client = \"pub-2037599131475204\";\r\n\/* lworld 234x60, created 11\/29\/10 *\/\r\ngoogle_ad_slot = \"8077549087\";\r\ngoogle_ad_width = 234;\r\ngoogle_ad_height = 60;\r\n\/\/-->\r\n<\/script>\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"\r\nsrc=\"http:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/show_ads.js\">\r\n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It has been a few months since my dog, Charlie, and I went on a long walk together.
