Quiet

It was a no stress day, a day (for a change) of not pushing myself.

Spots that grabbed me today included Mosaic Canyon, the sand dunes, and a somewhat odd assortment of other places.

I stopped for a welcome cup of hot chocolate at the Stovepipe Wells General Store after coming out of Mosaic Canyon, taking time to sit on a bench and relax. That gave me a chance to watch a bunch of sparrows playing in a puddle.

I stopped to sit on a slab of hardened sand (and salt?) in the sand dunes. It was so quiet... I couldn't hear a sound.

I chased a few more glitters of water in the salt flats.

A quiet day was just what I needed.
