Broad Road vs Narrow Path

Another very grey November day here - but not raining. So in the afternoon, in spite of the greyness, I managed to persuade myself to get out for a short walk again. For the first time since my knee injury (a month ago) I chose to go over to the old cemetery - where normally, I walk almost every day. ("over" in the sense that to get there, I need to first cross a pedestrian bridge over a railway, and then a road) 

To enter the cemetery from the nearest corner, there is also a short flight of stairs involved. (Down to enter, up to leave.) As there is a sturdy railing on one side, I managed that without problem. (I also bring one of my walking poles as support as soon as I leave my own flat.) 


Having come down those stairs, I have a choice of paths. I have to confess that just now (...contrary to Biblical recommendations...), I tend to choose the broad road over the narrow paths - because most of the latter are full of wet, slippery leaves... *


Anyway, I was out for about half an hour - just walking slowly on paths close to home, but trying to practice "normal length steps". Still a long way to go before I'm also back to normal distances, though.

*/ PS. When searching for the words used in the title of this post, the search engine took me back to my own blog, the same cemetery, and a wintry post from March 2023...

  2. That's so funny about the search engine! So how is your knee doing now after this? It looks dreary there, but lovely in a way, too.
