ghosts?

I can only explain it by people seeing ghosts 


    Not everyone, just some.

    The WM parking lot has signs spaced quite frequently that say "Stop for pedestrians."

    Pretty simple.  If someone is walking, don't hit them.

    I was behind a driver the other day who stopped at every one of the signs, despite there not being a person in sight.

    They must have seen ghosts.  Only thing that explains it.

    Maybe they are trying to balance out the people who don't stop for pedestrians in a crosswalk, even though it is a state law.   I mean, there are huge white stripes with signs, and people just drive along while I wait patiently to cross.  And yes, I am standing in the crosswalk at the curb.  Happens frequently when I cross from Jackie's hair dresser to Acres for coffee.

    And if you are undecided, don't stand in the crosswalk.  I have stopped for people and they look at me like I am crazy.  I waved one person to go across, but he shook their head no.  Confused me.

    For you oldies, Petula Clark sang a song echoing that:  "Don't stand in the crosswalks darling, don't look  at your phone."  Or maybe it was subways, I get confused.

    Speaking of confused, neither one of us could think of what we wanted for supper.  We ended up eating plain spaghetti with butter, pepper and parmesan cheese.

    To say it was filling would be a lie.  Noe I am looking around trying to find something to nibble on.

    I did finish weeding the garden tonight.   I also put up a cucumber screen friend Nadine gave me when she moved.  I also planted a row of carrots.  

    It was really nice outside.  Wish that would last.

Peace and Love
