Walking and reading are two activities that have taken off during the pandemic. However, I don’t recommend doing both at the same time; I’ve done that on my way home from the library and it didn’t end well.
You’d think a column about walking in the dead of winter would be bad timing, but exploring in the winter has its merits. And even if you’ve decided to keep your walks close to home, there’s a genre steadily growing in the publishing world that extols walking one’s neighborhood or town because there really is plenty to see.
