Just got back from a round trip to Vermont to take my daughter back to college, so I’m just a little late for my post. The first part of the trip was filled with music and college kid banter (there were three in the car), which I mentally recorded in case I ever needed some college slang.
The ride back was just me. I stopped to look at Lake Champlain, admired the mountains and took a minute to think of all the things I’m thankful for.
One of which is being able to take in a scene of a situation and translate it into words.
Pictures that I see become stories that become pictures for someone else to see. How cool is that? And it’s so accessible. Just pick up a book and there you are. No bells or whistles or fighting for the latest gadget. A simple pleasure that opens entire worlds.
I hope you all enjoy good reading for the holidays.
It was very nice, but as usual goes by way too fast. Vermont sounds like a lovely place to drive through this time of year. Right now there’s snow and ice. Looks like a postcard but not so much when you’re standing in it, sadly.
I like the idea of creating pictures for others to see. Just let the imagination flow
Sometimes driving by oneself is a nice way to enjoy some alone time and some time to think and take stock. Glad you had a safe drive, Gemma! And happy holidays and good reading to you, too!
