a quiet place...

a quiet place

My wife and I visited a local tourist
attraction yesterday.
We decided to have a quiet “picnic”
lunch away from the hustle and bustle.
Behind us was a busy cafe,
to the left, hundreds of shoppers,
and to the right a parking lot.
This little oasis was the perfect spot.

“We live in a very tense society.
We are pulled apart...
and we all need to learn
how to pull ourselves together...
I think that at least part
of the answer lies in solitude.”
- Helen Hayes

And one of my favorite things
about this attraction is the nice sized,
25 cent cup of coffee, you see displayed
here on the table... a definite plus.
