How 'bout that weather we're having? Sure is, weathery.

I accidentally did it yesterday. Took the dog for a walk, passed a woman sitting at the park bench near the park eating lunch. She was the instigator though I think, asked if I was local and what was the best thing about living here.

Having a smallish cute dog might be the key, but in this era of everyone staring at their phone it's harder than usual.

Turned out she was waiting for her kids friends to arrive, and they were out harvesting fruit from god knows where.

Just being outside is probably a good enough start. A pet is a handy excuse with added virtue signalling I guess.
