It's hard when I go out and come back in with not one picture. Yet, I have been learning that you need those days when you must search for something new and you don't shoot one picture. Today was one of those days. When I got to the bus stop, my bus was waiting. The driver was running a few minutes ahead of schedule and she choose my stop be hang a bit. Lucky for me, I had started out and had to return to the house for my face mask. It was better to turn around and go back than to get to the stop and there wasn't any mask in the freebie bin. Still, after all that, I was at the stop at the time the bus was to make the stop. Luckily, as I stated above the driver was hanging out to equalize the ahead-of-schedule that would get her in trouble if the DART route checker was sitting somewhere watching.
At the train station, I choose to head out to DFW and maybe explore the new TEXrail station in terminal B. But, I had already purchased my ticket for the day and had I gone on beyond DFW the rates increase. I had to get off at the St. Paul Station downtown to catch the Orange Line to DFW. My plan was to take it from my station but for some reason, it wasn't on the schedule from my station. Still, with my discount it would only have added a buck and a half. But, I choose to get off at the Irving Convention Center. The 403 was waiting and since I have not been out in that area for a while, I decided to ride the 403 back to my Train station via bus. Although it was a long bus ride. There was another reason to do that, too. I wanted to see how the new station for the SILVER line was coming along at the Addison Transit Station.Riding the bus back to my original rail start point on the Red Line, this would open up a lot of opportunities for things to shoot as the weather get even better. It was a four hour run overall. I could have gone on to Denton and had lunch on the sidewalk cafe of my choice overlooking the downtown square and businesses of downtown Denton. Although, I did not do that today. I'm trying to keep for overdoing my limits that can cause a major setback like before. Striking a good balance is knowing when to call it quits short of overdoing anything. The discovery trip today was more observation and location of things that are constantly changing. I needed that, too.
