Nineteen (Hobbies) Love the neighbors

Louise:    Hello, neighbor. Long time no see. You look great.
John:       Well, I started exercising three times a week.
L:            Good decision. I should take up regular exercise as well.
J:             But you do all this gardening. With a lot of success, by the way. 
                Your roses are beautiful this year. 
L:             Thanks. I enjoy working in the garden so much, it doesn’t even feel like exercise. 
J:              How’s your husband?  
L:             Fine. He started redoing the rec-room this weekend.
                 I hope all the hammering didn’t bother you.
J:              Oh, not at all. Peter and I went hiking. We weren’t even around to feel disturbed.
L:             Lucky you. It sure bothered me. I couldn’t get any reading done.
J:              Still into reading mysteries?
L:             You bet.
J:              Well, don’t let the bad guys get away!
L:             I won’t. See you around.
L:             Bye!
