Wednesday Walk How do you like walking alone or with others?
This post if for Wednesday walk challenge And Make me Smile Collaboration challenge, initially our collaboration was once a month but due to the popularity of it we have decided to make the collab a weekly thing :)
Any questions about the challenge read the guide at the Bottom of the post ;)
Some have bene asking how my wife is doing, she has been slowly improving, not much pain and can now almost reach to the top of her head with the shoulder that was broken, but still limited mobility, Yesterday she had a follow up with the Dr, and he said thats probably all the mobility she will have with her arm, but can continue with the physical therapy a little longer if she feels it is helping.
He did say surgery is an option but its a major surgery, repairing the rotator cuff, reforming the arm bone longer and a shoulder replacement, but as she is not in bad pain all the time for now he says with her age and health conditions he would probably not recommend the surgery since it is such a big Operation.
My wife was a mis of pleased that surgery is off the table but frustrated that she will have to live with limited mobility.
For this weeks post I was inspired by a few comments and replies on Walk posts from last week and I got thinking about how do people like walking or perhaps more accurately who do they like walking with.
For myself I often enjoy walking on my own especially if I am out on a photo walk So lets start with this photo of a duck on its own

It it I am antisocial or introverted, perhaps yes, but I find walking relaxing and calming especially when out in nature and enjoy the quite sounds of nature and hence being on my own.

Now not saying I do not enjoy walks with my wife which I do, when she is feeling up to going out for a walk, whether in a park on a beach or even in a mall sometimes we may be chatting away or at other times walking quietly especially on a beach or anywhere else outdoors

Now for me Walking in a crowd is not fun at all, when I have to like when I worked in NYC if the streets were crowded then I picked up the pace and got to where I was going as quick as I could and away from the crowds.
But I know for others walking with a group or Cycling and hiking, is for them the best way to go

As for me I do not mind crowds when I am on my own and the crowds are in the distance LOL

Wednesday Walk is a challenge started by me, the idea is to get out for a short walk and get some shots of what you can see within a short distance of your home office or wherever you start. And this is my entry for this week, but first, let me explain the challenge.
This is my post for the Wednesday Walk challenge hosted by myself, let me first explain the guidelines
Try and get out once a week for a short walk, can be from your office, home or anywhere really and walk for a few blocks or a few minutes looking for things to get shots of.
Your walk does not have to be on a Wednesday I just ask if possible to share your walk photos on a Wednesday.
Try and get a few shots not just one
Add a bit of a write up about where you walked
Just one Wednesday Walk tagged post a week
You can look for anything in general or decide on one subject you want to get shots off.
Make a point of looking around and up and see what you can find to get shots of that otherwise you may miss
Do a post with the shots you get on a Wednesday and tag it with #wednesdaywalk, also if you happen to join, please leave a link to your post in a comment on this post and I will try and visit them all, especially if its not one of the first 5 tags or I may miss seeing it .
Following me and re-Hiving the post so more see it would be appreciated but isn't a rule just a suggestion.
I am not strict on these rules and hence why they are called guidelines and not rules
I will try and visit, and upvote all who take part in the Wednesday Walk.
