Redondo Beach Library
here is a little of what i saw on my walk to Redondo Beach Library. at the library as i was able renew my library card and checked out two Inspector Morse dvds, one Midsomer Murder mystery, a Japanese movie which i have not seen called When the Last Sword is Drawn and as mentioned yesterday one of my all-time favorite movies, Maborosi. and i checked out a book by one of my favorite writers, Jack Kornfield. the book is entitled The Art of Forgiveness, Lovingkindness and Peace. i also stopped by a suprisingly neat, quiet and clean McDonald's near the library for my last hot fudge sundae. i decided to enjoy my sundae and catch up on the news of the day before walking back home. i think the roundtrip to the library and home again was about 8 miles. of course, i stopped many times for photos. and spent some time at the library. a little more time sitting under a bay fig looking up at how big this fig was, and a little more time sitting under a palm tree watching the sailboats on the ocean (ok, Santa Monica Bay). since i was neither in a hurry to get to the library or to return home, i simply enjoyed taking the time to take my time taking time.
