...but I am off on another escape, just on the heels of the last one.
I'm heading to the north and east this time, destination Downeast Maine and Acadia National Park. I hope that this will be a few days of rolling on two wheels, of walking on the rocks along the coast, of listening to the waves, of watching the sea gulls play, of being pulled by the images around me.
Enjoy my pictures made of words in my journal Acadia captured.
Yes, my camera was quite busy during my visit to Zion National Park last weekend.
If you'd like to look over my shoulder to see the visions captured by my camera lens, please visit my Red rocks glowing photo galleries.
A sample from each of the galleries is included below. Click on any picture to be transported to the gallery where it resides.
Observation Point:
...that anyone pays attention? The previous sign in this location told people to keep their dogs off of the lawn. I guess that sign didn't work. I suspect that this one won't work either - until dogs learn to read, that is!
Red squirrels, chasing each other up and down a tree, stopping to munch on tasty bits...
I'm really not hiding, but I won't be posting here for a few days. I'm off for what will probably be a too short long weekend, wandering on two feet in Zion National Park.
Join me, follow my adventures in my journal, Red rocks glowing.
...a big nut, that is!
Funny, I always think of coconut as a fruit, but it's really a nut, isn't it? That makes the high saturated fat content seem a little less bad. As I wandered through Whole Foods on Sunday, I saw a tub of fresh coconut. Fresh, and no work to get to that tasty nut meat. Yes, I absolutely had to buy some.
Oh! what a treat!
...a mystery road, that is!
I've lived in this area long enough that when my bicycle wheels roll down a road I am usually in very familiar territory. The path looks different when I'm riding opposite my usual direction but it still exudes an "I've been here before" feeling.
My last two rides? I wandered down roads that I don't remember at all. It seems hard to believe that there are roads I've never ridden before, but I managed to find a few. It's funny - I don't find it disconcerting at all to ride on unfamiliar roads when I'm touring away from home, but when I'm home? I expect to know where I am. I have to admit that the new-to-me roads were beautiful though.
My new riding goal? To seek out more mystery roads!
