It started the morning I decided to visit Muddy Waters (Coffee House) in Burlington, Vermont. I was told by the locals that if I was looking for a quiet place to write and enjoy a good cup of java, this was the place. I entered into a few different level rooms containing booths, cozy benches and chairs. After ordering an Iced Machiatto, I settled into a nice corner bench adjacent to a bookshelf. It was quiet, the perfect seat to get some reading done. My reason for spending a quiet morning here was to work through a few more chapters in The Artist's Way. (Julia Cameron's ~ Guide to Inspire Artists). Upon looking around, I noticed that there was a small, rolled up piece of paper tucked away in the brick wall behind me. At first, I was not sure whether to take it out and read it, or not. Perhaps I have seen too many "Candid - Punked" like shows, and someone was watching my every move. Pushing these paranoid thoughts aside, I reached over, read it and I was elated...
Sounds like you know how to make fun no matter what the weather is. Thanks for sharing your room with a view.
ReplyDeleteYes ~ Hubby and I never at a loss ~ We always find something to do - But we had to put our thinking caps on this weekend - We were hoping for a nice relaxing weekend - But Mother Nature had other plans for us - LOL - Always wonderful hearing from you, Kathryn ...
ReplyDeleteThe most important thing is that you had fun! And your photos SO make me want to go to Maine! I've never been to Horse Racing, maybe I should give it a try. :)
ReplyDeleteYes ~ We had a wonderful time in Maine ~ We have been visiting Maine all our lives ~ It seems there are 2 kinds of vacations you take in Massachusetts (for quick get-aways) - You are either "Cape Cod" Vacationers or "Maine" Vacationers ... I am seeing more and more of Maine as time goes on and I love it more each year ... Beautiful beaches, nice people, fun shopping, great restaurants, etc ... We would love to show Maine, Someday.
