corner view~out the car window

This was taken several miles from my home town, where the air is cooler, fresh and crisp. It was a lovely day. I drove my daughter up the mountain to visit her friend in the countryside, all the while chatting with my six-year-old son, rocking out to Don Henley, and taking in the scenery. My son and I stopped in a small country store with hitching posts in front of it. I got him a snack, and was happy to see improvements of a store that hadn't changed much in probably 50 years. They have some organic food, a new deli and smoothie bar. We visited with the local folks.

Our other daughter stayed behind at sea level to play with her friend til late in the evening, and my husband, who had been rehearsing with his new rock band, eventually met us at another friend's house later for dinner. All in all, there were lots of connections with lots of friends, new experiences, and natural beauty. And for that we are grateful.
