Running...out of Steam

Runners are a strange lot. I am used to taking a certain route for my regular run, even though when I go to a different place, I run on a strange route without a second thought. But when I run on my regular route, I have a mental image of how far I want to go and at what pace, and this construction season is playing havoc with those plans.

With more prairie land being converted to parking lots, there appears to be lesser and lesser space for animals and birds to thrive. Rather sad to see that our parking needs run over the homes of birds and animals.
