Day 3,292 —Familiar Sidewalks—

I ended up near where I grew up and remembered riding my bike on those uneven sidewalks and falling hard so many times. There's a particular spot on Watson that takes a sharp turn down a hill, and I remember completely missing it once on my bike. I don’t recall if I got hurt or not, so I assume it wasn't that bad. While many storefronts have changed, several haven't in the past twenty years or so. There's the same pretzel place that I've never patronized, and I remember always wondering, "What is a pretzel place doing here?" There's also the same "Evolve" fitness place that I only recall because I worked for a different "Evolve" at Elsevier at the time. It's easy to see all the differences and reflect on how things have changed, but I'm always amazed by how much doesn't change for such a long time.
