Way behind

First, I did't have a connection from my camera to my iPad. Then I didn't have a good enough Internet connection. Now I seen to have both and, because we are on the bus to New York, I have the time to blog. The scenery is only of trees planted beside Route 95 . . . still all green.
We arrived in Vienna close to Wednesday morning, so I walked to Nottway Park, maned after this house, to visit my old farmers market. We used to play tennis there with a crowd of retired locals in the morning.
 The markets have moved to Oak Marr, 3 miles away and too far to walk. But I enjoyed hanging over the fences of the community garden plot beside the old house. It had only just been started when we left 12 years ago. Now the gardens extend over two huge paddocks. Strange when most Vienna houses are on large plots and what is not house is covered in grass.
 This was the only "wild flower" to be seen in the park.
Although there was a wild man close by. Jo got a warning for jay walking on his way to the Metro. He admitted that he had not crossed the road (off Nutley St) at the crossing but objected to a second policeman, in a marked car this time, taking his photo without his permission. We carefully crossed at crossings thereafter.
