Walking Man (Posted in 2008)

There is a man who walks here in my town. I see him every day without fail. He walks and he walks and he walks. He is very tall...he looks kind of like a lumberjack. He walks along the same route every day all hunched over in his flannel zip up shirt and big boots...his big arms swinging at his side. He has a full red beard and lots of thick red hair and I am curious about him. I have asked around and everyone just says the same thing "Oh, you mean Crazy Walker Man". Yep, Crazy Walker Man...that no one knows ANYTHING about. Now, I am not too concerned about Crazy Walker Man because he obviously gets decent meals because he is HUGE and it takes a lot of calories to sustain all that weight while doing all that walking. He also looks pretty clean so he must have somewhere to cleanse himself.

When I first moved to the town I always thought he was just walking to the bus stop each morning and our schedules just coincided...not the case. No matter what time I travel down that road Crazy Walking Man is walking either to or from the bus stop area...swinging his arms, head down...just walking.
