Saying good-bye to my forest friends


Today is my final day to be in this place I have called home for the last four years. Grapevine, my suburban community, could be mistaken for a frontier wilderness with all the wildlife one sees. Just last night I saw another fox, the second one within a month. And here I thought only armadillos, possums, and raccoons visited from the riverbanks and wooded areas!

My new urban apartment is within walking distance of White Rock Lake. Now I’ll have water fowl living nearby as well as four-footed critters.

And I’m excited about the 10-mile bike path that circles the lake. My silver and blue mountain bike has sat idle for too, too long.

Look out, Dallas, here I come!
