Hello, Hive friends! I wish you are well and happy!

How's life? has it been good lately? I wish it's been kind to you and your family.

Without further ado, let me share with my walk with you. Actually, this walk isn't planned. It was a lovely morning on February 5th and I am taking the commute to work. I realized that waiting for the multicab to get full would take so much time, so I waited for the bus instead.

Not long after, the bus arrived and the conductor is a friend and a neighbor. She issued me the ticket and I paid according to the indicated price then I scrolled facebook and got entertained by the posts about fish which I got crazy about these days. When I was done with my phone, I looked outside then it hit me, The road is not familiar anymore and I stood and asked the driver to stop. I laughed and so did my friend and she apologized for not halting the bus at my stop.

I was 400 meters away from my stop and I had to walk back t get to my workplace. I regretted looking at my phone and it is the lesson I learned.

Then begin my Walk!

I crossed the road after looking left and right finding it empty. The highway is already 6 lanes on this side, quite wide, eh? and it's difficult for everybody to cross when it's busy.

Lucky me the drainage system is covered and is turned into a lovely path walk along the road. And not long after, I found these DIY punching ball and punching bag made of rope and sack; a thought came to e somebody might have been practicing here but there is no house near it. creepy!

I continued on my walk, I had to do it fast since I only got a little time left before I would be late and avoid salary deduction but the photographer in me say,

Hey chill! You're gonna be late even if you run so take your time and appreciate nature. You can only do this once.

So I did chill on my walk and took the wonderful scenery on my phone.

This stone wall is just amazing! and it is a fence for some private property.

This guyabano fruit is just so curious about what's on the other side of the fence and is peeking out of it. I guess the passerby will be the first to get the fruit when it's mature enough.

These pine needles are trying its luck to poke on somebody too! haha!

My mother in law said that this kind of pine tree can cure relapse when one boil its needles and drink it for a few days.


This is where the rock wall leads; an old rusty gate along the way. I wonder what's inside.

Some more PInes and huge trees!


And a mango bloom! This surely is not of season but I hope this flower will develop into a fruit.

Bunk Houses!

Now I reached to the part where the highway construction workers were temporarily housed with their families. If one does not know about the work they are doing, they might be mistaken as squatters along the highway.

I feel pity for them though. It's hard to live somewhere not your own, and no sure source of water yet they look comfortable though. Or they might have gotten used to it, maybe they love be with their loved ones, right?

The people there are curiously looking at me and I sped up to race with time; I can see the feed mill now then my auntie came out of nowhere!

She rolled her window and talked to me; she then offered me a lift when I told them I should go ahead because I had to catch the time. They were waiting for me so I could introduce them to the company's purchase; they are selling fine and coarse lime feed grade which is a good source of calcium for farm animals.

Good thing Bernie entertained them and there is a huge probability that they will be able to supply lime someday.

I was one minute late, I may have some regrets but I had a great experience on my unexpected walk. I told my husband about the unfortunate experience and he just laughed at me making me smile.

This is my entry for the #wednesdaywalk that #mademesmile, a collab of tattoo-djay@tattoo-djay and elizacheng@elizacheng. Thank you, both of you for this beautiful challenge. More Hive to come to everyone!
