Most of these prose skteches were written when I returned home after regular Sunday walks in Lowell, Massachusetts between 2009 and 2011. Sometimes I had companions, but usually I walked alone, carrying a notebook and pen. I would go out for an hour or two. I wanted to see what I could see and look and listen more closely to life on the streets. Also included here is a summary of the popular Lowelk Walks program initiated by Richard P. Howe Jr. in 2015.
