"Since all of the houses are designed that way suddenly it's not weird any more!" Dawn Patrol eyes long slanty garage roofs that look like they will channel massive quantities of snow onto driveways in wintertime. We ramble through a new neighborhood in search of connector streets. K2 spots a deer nibbling a front yard garden. Black iron security gates are decorated with golden shapes. A path is marked "Private Park". Really?

"What a wonderful gift!" Roadkill thanks K2 for suggesting today's novel route along Swinks Mill Road. In Scotts Run Nature Preserve a happy puppy dashes up to us — the same one who met us here a week ago!
