Decompress

No picture, but maybe I will add one later. The weather turned beautiful here this afternoon, as I took a Westmoreland Transit bus out to Mount Pleasant last night and some friends picked me up and we relaxed entirely at their wonderful mountain home on the western ridge of the Laurel Highlands: an enclave of older houses set on large wooded lots. I used to cross country ski up here in the nineties and today is a wonderful way to spend the day here with old friends.

It's funny how the smells can recollect such vivid memories of bygone years and distant adventures. Running errands with them this morning was quite enjoyable - they stopped at all these little stores along Rt. 31 for the various locally-made (or grown) ingredients for the meal tonight.

Gotta get back outside to enjoy the day...
