Do you like the views when you walk around your area?

[Spinneret]

So so

Like in your neighborhood? We walk about 2 1/2 miles in the morning around daybreak, and it's the same view every day. OK, I guess.

But what I do enjoy is the morning bird chorus, especially the Northern Cardinals. In a month or so, we will be able to hear the Chuck Will's Widow call on cooler, clear mornings.

If the birds are singing in the morning, I take it as an omen that probably the world won't end, in the words of Buzz Lightyear, "Not today Zurg!!!"

Yep.

It’s ok. Lots of woods. Older homes like ours. Very few businesses.

If I didn’t I would move.

One of the reasons we moved here - we walk around Old Town Alexandria almost every day. Great architecture, right now blooming cherry trees and redbuds, flowers, waterfront; I even enjoy walking through the old cemeteries.

I ADORE them! We're sandwiched between the seaside and a national park with regency architecture and wild horses!

We stay in old town when we visit DC. Very nice area to walk around and this is a nice time of year there.

If I leave the neighborhood, absolutely.

Though "walking" is always mentioned, but I ride a bicycle. I'm about a mile from the North Country Trail, so I have somewhere fantastic to walk, but I can get to the lake by bicycle and ride around it. In the summer about 3 times a week I pack up dinner and ride out to the lake, 8 miles, and eat dinner.

I live on the outskirts of town, so I have all country roads in 3 directions to go to on the bicycle and it's beautiful.

I can't just walk out my door and be in woods or farmland any more though. I miss that tremendously.
