Sittin' in the front yard: a world view

I am sitting in the front yard because my internet (which we had shared with a neighbor) is no longer working.  Our neighbor is trying to figure out how to get cheaper service so there's a lull.  However, when I sit in the front I can "steal" the internet from the library.  It's not super consistent but it works pretty well so that's what I've been doing the past few days.

Anyway, I was just thinking amused to myself that if I didn't have this problem I would not have seen as many people walk by and I would not have realized what a (sometimes literally) colorful part of the city this can be.  We are on a main street AKA Main St., in fact, and I'm sure I've seen a handful of homeless folks  as well as neighbors and our neighbor (directly next to us) has a hair cutting business so I talked with one of her clients who was smoking outside all about natural birth and his theory of the danger of doctors ironically. Sometimes being inconvenienced is way to shake me out of my stupor and make me realize the world is bigger than what I typically see.
