SheltieLover reminded me of a small miracle I experienced

[JMCKUSICK]

41 years ago.
I received an email from SheltieLover congratulating me for 1000 posts.
That miracle has given birth to countless others over these last decades. It was a very simple piece of advice a drivers education instructor shared with our class.
Whenever you're driving, read the names of street signs, businesses and train your eyes to observe.
I've been privileged to witness so much beauty because of that simple piece of advice that my bounty has overflowed endlessly due to a very simple suggestion.
Thank you for letting your eyes witness such beauty, grace and yes, important milestones SheltieLover.
You sure made my day simply by being observant and sharing it with me.

7. My bad. I do like figuring out what street names are part

of what neighbourhood. Like there is a neighbourhood in Ottawa built after the war that has names like "Normandy" and other WWII geography.
