CIMPLE – A Curious Introvert's Musings & Photos about Life and Enjoyment

The art of being relaxed when approached by a stranger. Harper and I have been known to scare off a variety of wildlife in the backyard, but for some reason this mourning dove did not view us as a threat and stayed there relaxed for a photo shoot. This is the polar opposite of earlier in the week when a car stopped by Harper and I while walking in a deserted park and as the man rolled down his BACK window to talk to me my first thought was “KILLER.” Now, I still don’t know if it was the combination of it being a foggy, rainy deserted morning,

the back window thing, news headlines or watching too many episodes of Criminal Minds that played into that reaction. Even though it was a brief pleasant conversation, Harper and I will be walking the Main Street sidewalks this weekend because for some reason we’re never suspicious of those random strangers that stop to talk to Harper.
