After 4 days of rain, the sun came out today! Could hardly wait to get on my running shoes and go out to play...sunny and in the cool 60's... perfect for a 10K run (6.2 miles). I ran through several old residential neighbourhoods, new to my running route. One of the streets was slanted, had a high crown, good for water run-off but not for running. This road engineering forces me to run down the middle of the road. I was cruising along and a nice even pace... then smack in the middle of two cross roads... the intersection of Plantation Road and Cobblestone Road I met Emily and Staci. They are BFF's (Best Friends Forever). Sealing their friendship in the middle of the intersection for the world to see! I was so moved by the sight of their hand prints, I ran circles around them! Getting down on my knees, I took a closer look. For a fleeting moment I was imagining what they must have been feeling and could almost hear them giggling.
Snapping out of it...... HELLO? ~ get out of the middle of the road, I thought to myself... quickly picking back up with my run.
When I finally returned home, I grabbed my cell phone, hopped in the car and drove back to the intersection so I could photograph for my Blog. What an AMAZING find... a beautiful gift... made my day!
perfect day to paint by "hand print"
it's winter...a cold and rainy day... created my own sunshine or perhaps a spring flower? How ever you see it ... feel the warmth?
I am always delighted when I find a hand print in the sidewalk!
Spotted this hand while walking along Morningside Drive in Rice Village... one of Houston's best-loved shopping destinations since the 1930's. How old do you think this hand print is?
