Bimble, a new word I came across while reading "Words That Dance Upon Your Tongue" by Martin Horton, danced delightfully upon mine. According to the Oxford English Dictionary it can be used as a noun to depict a leisurely walk or journey, or as a verb, to describe walking or traveling at a leisurely pace.
So yesterday, I went out for a bimble with my daughter. It was my first walk in days. Extreme heat and humidity had kept me sheltered indoors, but we found shady streets to bimble along, and the gently blowing breeze made it feel almost pleasant.
Does this look like a turtle to anyone else but me?
My keen eyed daughter spotted this leaf imprint on the sidewalk.
This looks like a REAL leaf to me. I love learning new words! My problem now is remembering them!
ReplyDeleteIt did to me too, but we picked at it, and sure enough, it was an imprint.
DeleteI love the leaf imprint! And I love the word Bimble! I think I will be using that one!
