WALKING THE DOG AND SMILING AT A STRANGER

Fort Worth, TX

That's what folks do in Texas, smile at strangers and being friendly. I'll be smiling a lot this afternoon as I'm headed to the Fort Worth Rodeo and Stock Show with the ladies at work. Each year, the owner gives us a ladies day out to go to the Rodeo. Can't wait. This will be my first visit to the Fort Worth Rodeo. Guys in Wranglers riding bulls and horses....can't go wrong there. Should get plenty of action shots there. But, first, we will head to lunch for steak...yummy!

And a nice smile it is, too. Happy young lady and her dog, getting some exercise.

With that hat she risks running into the guy! I always smile and wave at old people on the balcony, it keeps them busy all day! "Who was that, that waved at me... no not david...no not " :)

Smiling at a stranger.Way better than avoiding eye contact!Nice slice of life Cindi.Take your monopod,head down to the rails and have fun!

you've got action in the bag with a rodeo!! This one is really fun. I wish we had a downtown area sometimes. Around here no one walks to get anywhere. Funny how different towns are. Our town is pretty friendly.. I like that too

Beautiful street scene Cindi. It's so nice to find friendly faces along the street.
Nice capture !!

I have a friend moving to Austin. She says the same thing about people being friendly.

This one is so relaxing. I am looking forward to your pictures of the rodeo.

I'll head to the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo....hopefully next Friday. When we walk in the morning and wave at every car that goes by.....my walking partner will say "Who was that?" and I'll say "I don't know".....we wave and smile at everyone in Texas. Isn't it great? Have fun, Cyndi.

Strangers don't talk to strangers in the northeast. I miss that about living in the Great State of Texas!
Have fun at the rodeo Cindi! You'll see lots of cute guys there! :)

Nice street shot, Cindi. That's the way it should be ... smiling at strangers and generally being friendly.

And, oh, yeah ... Wranglers patches!! Have fun for all of us!! ;-)
