I'm like a pencil;
sometimes sharp,
most days
well-rounded,
other times
dull or
occasionally
broken.
Still I write.

Time to get away from the congestion of this city.
I am going on a road trip, an adventure so to say, for more than a couple of days.
I’ll be returning, in a way, to a place I have not been for quite a while. I haven’t driven this route since I made my way here almost ten years ago and will be going back as close to home as I have been in a long stretch. There I will find family and friends. I will be welcoming good weather, open roads, peace and love.
It’s time.

“To photograph: it is to put on the same
line of sight the head, the eye and the heart.”
-Henri Cartier-Bresson
Undoubtedly over the coming weeks, people will pull out their mobile devices and cameras more than they usually do to capture the moments as they unfold (I know I will).
These pictures of family and friends, places you visit and destinations you travel to, become the sights and lights of the season that will forever form memories in your heart.
A photograph can do that.
Enjoy each moment.

A sidewalk only takes you
where you want to go. There is
no preordained direction, it
goes both ways and is available
to anyone and their dog. Watch
where you step, be conscious of
puddles, and the stepping on the
crack thing is wholly subjective.
It’s totally up to you, which path
you follow, or even if you want to
walk on the grass. Exercise your
rights, but, by all means, exercise.
Move at your own speed, and
please share the space; we are all
going somewhere and the journey
is far more enjoyable if everyone
remains respectful of everyone else.
