Porch Sitting

I admit it, I spend an inordinate amount of time, pre sun up to post sun down, on my Key West front porch observing and engaging with the passers by.  

We are situated on an intersection corner and there is multidirectional incoming traffic enhanced by lots of southern hospitality inspired "Good Mornings" which pave the way for easy conversational interaction. 

What could be better for a natural born networker? So many relationships and friends have been engendered. 

And I have a reliable built in sensor/monitor, as Charcoal sits next to me, sniffing and barking at some and not others. 

PS: Thank you Rona for inspiring this blog :)

Yogi Berra famously said, "You can observe a lot just by watching." I bet he had a porch and liked to engage too.

When I lived on the UWS I would take my chair down to the stoop. I now have a porch to sit on and I love it.

I was reading it and thinking what a great blog!!! I totally would do that, I love talking to people. But how did I inspire it?
