About Linda Schaub

This is my first blog and I enjoy writing each post immensely. I started a walking regimen in 2011 and in 2013 I decided to create a blog as a means of memorializing the people, places and things seen on my daily walks. I have always enjoyed people watching, so my blog is peppered with folks I meet or reflections of characters I have known through the years. Often something piques my interest, or evokes a pleasant memory from my memory bank, so this becomes a “slice o’ life” blog post. I respect and appreciate nature and my interactions with Mother Nature’s gifts is also a common theme. Sometimes the most-ordinary items become fodder for points to ponder over and touch upon. I retired in March 2024 after a career in the legal field. I was a legal secretary for almost 45 years, primarily working in downtown Detroit, then working from my home. I graduated from Wayne State University with a degree in Mass Communications (print journalism) in 1978, though I’ve never worked in that field. I would like to think this blog is the writer in me finally emerging!! Walking and writing have met, shaken hands and the creative juices are flowing in Walkin’, Writin’, Wit & Whimsy. I hope you think so too. - Linda Schaub

      Thanks Kate! I’ll have a couple more shots of it and a tale about the encounter in a blog post down the road. There was a couple walking ahead of me on the trail. They turned around and the woman pointed to the woods without speaking, so I wouldn’t miss this doe. I caught up with them later, a very nice couple and we chatted for a while. He takes photos of wildlife and she paints from his photos.

    Well, Linda, i don’t think that deer are turning into carnivores that look at us like something tasty to eat. That would be a twist, wouldn’t it? Then the hunters would be the hunted. Then the tables would be turned, and people would run in fear.

      I don’t think so either Tom, but I admit I was fascinated by the deer sticking its tongue out at me – it wasn’t eating as I got a few shots before this last one, which I’ll save for one of my longer Sunday posts. There were two kind people, a man and a woman, ahead of me on this trail and they stopped in their tracks – the woman turned around and looked at me, pointed at the trees and went “shhh” … that was nice of them, as I wouldn’t have seen the doe as I was looking ahead on the path for snakes. We’ve had two Mississauga Rattlesnakes in Michigan lately – one was in someone’s goat at a park boat launch and the other was on a trail at a metropark and bit a young girl.
