city living, of a sort

[moominmolly]

Going on an impromptu run to Walden for midnight skinny-dipping with aroraborealis: brilliant.

Running in to 20 people who'd had the same idea, and discovering we knew them: probably more surprising than it should have been.

Water: warm and relaxing. Weather: pleasant at night. Molly: happy.

I do still want to try that! However, aroraborealis had never been to Walden, and it seemed a shame.

that would seem a shame, yes. i've been there a bunch, though never at night :)

Well, I'd been, but not at night, which was, in fact, quite different.

Spy Pond is the one in Arlington, right? I'd like to do that sometime, too, but I'd also like to go back to Walden, especially on a night with fewer people out there, or when it's not a school night so we can stay later. Because there's something about being out of the city... but for you, yeah, Walden at night is clearly not the way to go.

perhaps after my knee is fixed i'll be able to handle Walden at night. which means next summer...

Spy Pond is the one in Arlington. i rather like how uncrowded it is during the day, which is not at all like Walden during the day.

i would personally be a bit more nervous about going there, because it is surrounded by houses. it feels much easier to avoid the cops when we're so far from the road at walden.

i've been told the cops don't patrol there because those roads are so secluded... and this is from a rather, uh, rowdy bunch who goes there late at night quite often. i highly doubt a smaller group of quieter people will have any notice taken of them.

how rowdy is rowdy? i am not little miss quiet, myself.
