It dawns open and expectant, as wide as the sea.
but soon will be whizzing by, hurtling me closer and closer to that final destination.
But sometimes, more often now, I remember to see the landscapes opening up on the sides,
the ones that hold still,
the peace that sits so quietly under the trees.
Happy New Year to all of you!
I read somewhere that as we age, our happiness is ever more related to our ability to enjoy the simplest things... and to do that, I must slow down. I also remember hopw my mohter used the expression "peace and quiet"; ""peace and hurry" just doesn't seem to work.

Those are truly beautiful pictures. It is so easy (and safe!) to miss that beauty when one is seated behind the steering wheel.

Gorgeous photos! Here in wet warm Seattle, I'm jealous of the snowy view.
