A Long Day

Oct 1

Yesterday was one tiring big-assed long day.

From the time I left the "old homestead" around 8:00 a.m., it was 13 hours plus before I opened the front door somewhere around 9:30 p.m.

If I happened to have one of those apps on my phone that plotted where I went on Google Maps, I swear it would have resembled the graphic here.

Nevertheless, it was a tiring big-assed long day that was needed mentally and emotionally. It was a day that in many ways I didn't need to think; worry about; or have to deal with...... anything.

A day where essentially my mind could be blank or empty of responsibilities(other than to get myself back home safely). I could walk where I wanted to; see what I wanted to; and eat what I wanted to. A day to watch people scurry to and fro across the Waterfront Boardwalk. At times surrounded by hordes of people along the waterfront(there were three cruise ships visiting - a lot of folks sightseeing), while at other times to relish the peace, quiet, and solitude of the art gallery.

A day to be selfish and do something for myself.

Yesterday, only a small chip was chiseled off the block of things to see and do in Halifax.

So much more I could have seen; done, and experienced. And that's the beauty of it. There will be other days in the future when a day like yesterday might be needed. There will be some things I might do and see again. Perhaps.

But, there is so much more to discover. Mostly about myself.

--as always with love--

--- get outdoors; find inspiration; discover yourself ---
