...walking through the fresh snowfall we had last week it occurred to me that I quite often vary my cadence in the hopes of throwing off someone who might be following me. I'll take longer strides than normal and then much smaller ones. But I don't stop there. I'll hop on one foot for about 20' or so, to give the illusion of a one legged man. Or I'll hop on both feet so each footprint is right beside the other. Kinda' like a bunny hop. This gets tiring quickly, so I only do it on special occasions. Sometimes I'll veer off course, maybe a 45 degree angle of 10' or more and suddenly stop, and then carefully tip toe back on the same prints (so not to disrupt the footprints) to my main route.
Other times, I like to make squares or circles or some geometric variation to break things up. I hope you don't find this strange behavior but see it as a manifestation of a zeal for life. Sometimes I wonder when I see tracks going to a mud hole did they do it or just back up? Snow is one thing mud is quite another...besides there's plenty of spare parts available....live a little....
