My Street



Runners.  Walkers.  Cyclists.  Rollerbladers.  Skateboarders.
Dog walkers.  My street is always busy. 


Except in the late afternoon.

The City Daily Photo bloggers are posting photos today to illustrate the theme of "my street."
Take a look.  Both of these photographs were taken in late September, when I thought
"my street" was going to be the October theme.

  5. It must be "siesta time" in the pm. Yes, I agree that we who live in these kinds of neighborhoods are very fortunate.

  6. Jack, you live in a beautiful neighborhood. Love the light and quiet of this street, even if it is full of runners. They don't make much noise.

  9. Well, no wonder you live on that street what with all the beautiful women running by! What does your long-suffering wife say when you have your nose to the window for hours on end? Heh? :-))

  12. Exactly my idea of a Hartford street, Jack! So peaceful!! Mine is a rather gritty urban street and not terribly blog-worthy so I have passed on this theme but I am enjoying seeing all the posts.

  14. It looks very pleasant, with all the trees and the wide grass verges. You must have to do a lot of sweeping up leaves in the fall though.

  17. A very nice interpretation of the theme. I like the contrast of the runners against the still afternoon. Thanks for sharing!

  18. Oh wow, you live on a beautiful street Jack. I have the Mercedes Marathoners blowing down my street in the winter when it's too cold for anyone to be out half nekkid running!

  19. What a beautiful street. Also filled with beautiful people or people planning to stay that way it seems.
    There can't be much traffic if they run down the middle of the road like that.

  23. Your street looks lovely, Jack. Hope to see red leaves on the Japanese Maple Tree next year. I would love to keep one but I'm afraid it won't survive the heat in summer.
