I used to limit this section to fabulous people. But hey, I'd like to feature people I met along the way whether fabulous or just people. Peoplescape make up the social fabric I tread on. Perhaps the person is interesting...perhaps the conversation was interesting...perhaps the encounter was memorable. -- TheLoneRider (May 2017)

I'm beginning to write about people I haven't seen in years. Creating a "Peoplescape" section is timely. It paves the way to focus more on the people I've met (or read about) along the way instead of inserting them as a snippet in a blog. They deserve their own story. Like I always say, the next magnificent life I'll meet is just around the bend.
