Let the ordinary thrill you – Walk 11, Yr 3, Manchester Canal Walk, 4/8/17

“You need to let the little things that would ordinarily bore you suddenly thrill you.” Andy Warhol    –

Fresno Mindfulness Walkers practice Warhol’s recommendation every week.  During a 4 mile walk that began at Manchester Mall in central Fresno, walkers were ‘thrilled’ at the plantings along the canal banks, sounds and feelings of flowing water, a clean air day, a house built with logs (log cabin style), front yard tree swings, a fallen tree, front yard art, and so much more.  Walkers also discussed challenges of litter, people living in distraught circumstances, the seasonal nature of flowing water in the Central Valley, and the expense of maintaining trees.  Walkers enjoyed strolling Gazebo Gardens and met people who follow FMW online.

“Trees and shade make anything beautiful.”  Julia
