Rock Row quarry pit, 11:45am
This scape may not be nearly as pretty as in good weather, but it’s still dramatic. I only snapped twice, feeling let down, and the second is off focus more than I like or can adjust; rather like the morning felt. Tired. Unenthused.
Red and I both got soaked and chilled outside the neighborhood, but we’re none the worse for it. We accomplished four small tasks: investigated potential text scam at phone store, bought Crumbl cookies, bought lunch and supper at MB supermarket, and walked 30 minutes in the rain. Feels good as we both relax now, and I’m recalling the genial people we encountered, especially the grizzled long beard with bad knees like mine, also buying readymade supper. Plus there were five handsome young folks buying cookies, a man with a muscular densely tattooed sleeve photographing a store entrance, and a friendly young black haired store clerk, all eager to pet Red. What an attention magnet he is!
We were talking last night about relationship as a function of Time/Heropass and Divine Love. Another good memory, abstract certainly, but now I associate it with these pleasant encounters with strangers. I am reminded of the importance of getting out and about, regardless of mood or weather. That needs to be a constant aim: meet people.
Lord bless all the folks we encountered today. Bless our tribe and our friends. Forgive us the hurt we cause and forgive those who harm us: forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors, in your words. IJN
