Tell me, on the street after the second corner you turn on the way to the store, how many trees are there along the sidewalk? What kind of trees are they?
There’s an interesting book called “On Looking” where the author walked around a city block with 11 experts in different fields and saw the world through their eyes. Here’s an article about it: themarginalian.org/…/on-looking-eleven-walks-with…
The world is endlessly interesting, even in the mundane. Even if it’s just keeping an eye out for new street art or thinking about a project or figuring out what I will do this weekend or just listening to my body and feeling the new aches or am old pain going away. There’s often not a need for music for me.

Depends on the specific path, but there are 4-6 trees, planted in the middle of a small parking lot in front of an office building. I’m no tree specialist, so Idk, they’re just fairly normal common kind of trees.
There is a lot more around the corner itself and they were a delightful shade of gold a few weeks back, to the point at certain angles they’d actually do that ray tracing thing of bleeding colour onto the concrete paths, I was tired from work that week and because of how dark it got I never got the chance to take my DSLR out and take some shots at mid-day, contrasted with a cloudless blue sky it would be quite beautiful, but oh well.
I agree with all of this except the last part, because if anything all of this is enhanced by music for me.
