Looking Up

A road from my house through town, that leads to a gravel road, slight trespassing around a gate, past the pump house, and on to the dike. Then it's freedom and open space - the perfect setting for a Dixie Chick's coming of age song.  Wide open spaces.  Room to make her big mistakes.  I'm surely a life phase our two beyond a coming-of-age theme song, but I still need wide open spaces to think things through....and to stop thinking so much.

Blanchard Mountain ahead, the spot where we got married.  A place to look up at.  Symbolism at its best.
