Any walkers out there?

Give us a chance to see what's new in town - maybe some of you locals could explain to us out-of-towners what we're looking at.
Any takers?

Who are you?
Okay, everyone. Sign in. Click on your own name under the Contributors List (on the left-side of the blog). Then click on "Edit Profile." Add a current picture. (Don't know how? Don't be shy, ask your kids or grandkids, they'll talk you through it!) Tell us something about yourself. I'm betting some things have changed since high school.
- How do you like to spend your spare time? What do you do (or what did you do if you're retired) for a living? How many children do you have? Grandchildren? No children? How about pets?
- Done any kind of interesting travel? (No, the trip to the dump doesn't count, unless you saw Big Foot on the way....)
- Anything funny happen to you along life's road?
- Anything that changed the way you think?
- What do you read? What do you watch? What do you listen to?
Tell us as much as you like - but you know we're all clicking on each other's profiles, wondering what we've been doing all this time. Come on, you've done it yourself, you know you have.
And think of the conversation starters these profiles will provide once we finally get to see one another
in October.
Cough it up, guys.

Riddle Answer
Time to end the suspense...
These were the words Mrs. Linton required us to know before we were allowed to have our very first reader - which I believe was the first book of the Alice and Jerry Reading Program. (Click here for more about those books.) As I recall, she had them displayed on an easel and we were required to identify the words quickly as she used a pointer to jump around between them. I remember being very happy when I finally "passed." And I vaguely recall that one of those words consistently hung me up, but couldn't tell you which one it was now.
So. I remember that. But I spent an hour trying to find my glasses yesterday. Isn't the human brain a strange and wonderful thing?
