Couples walking together

My window overlooks the street which often has pedestrians on their way to the park or coming back. There are many dog walkers and young families with strollers.

I am drawn to the couples walking together. It isn't easy to adjust the pace to keep together on our narrow sidewalk. I do often see couples with the woman often several steps behind.   Once I winced when there was a man yelling over his shoulder at the women behind him.

I smile when I see couples who are able to hold hands and carry on a conversation.
