TRAVEL || ADIRONDACKS
Delicious sunset | No, I never ate at the Mickey D's you see here | Was only interested in the sunset, and hadn't expected I'd be able to quickly get to some other spot to capture it in time | Hence... an unintended advert for a place I don't typically trade with |
The ride was at the tail end of a trip to North River and a day spent almost alone at 13th lake | A day, in fact, typical of how I'd probably spend much of my time had I an unlimited travel budget and lots of free time | Riding aimlessly about, stopping to take photos, do water sketches, and get into abstruse conversations with total strangers | My idea of a good time | Not only is it relaxing, such endeavors can be immensely creative, ripe for future memories, occasionally ribald and erotic [though unexpected, that ~ and certainly not during that sojourn] ...almost always allowing me to
walk away the better for the experience |
I was hungry by the time I got back to camp | Had a hearty meal of smoked apple-cured bacon, oatmeal with sweet jelly and chamomile tea | Not good in the carbs department, perhaps, but tasty and filling nevertheless |
