4:30 a.m. yesterday morning.
Forecast called for 90% to 100% cloud cover, and light rain. Again, damn it. Rinse & Repeat.
I stare at the app, irritated.
I pay $50 / year for this smartphone app, and it’s consistently wrong.
Yet, I pay.
And I believe.
And I walk.
Oh, Lord. Let it be wrong again today.
And light rain it did; Rain enough to keep the pesky humans at home.
But it let up.
And there I am. Alone. Standing on the break wall, with the fog lifting.
I snap the shot. I stare at the LCD screen, and I don’t see what I see in front of me.
The HuMan tool can’t capture it.
Beautiful can’t describe it. Ethereal.
Painter Giorgio Morandi: “One can travel this world and see nothing. To achieve understanding it’s necessary not to see many things, but to look hard at what you do see...Nothing, or almost nothing in this world is truly new, what’s important is the new, different perspective an artist chooses to look at the world.”
It’s been 1,828 consecutive (almost) days on this Cove Island Park walk. Like in a row.
Yes, it’s the same Cove Island Park track. May 5th makes it the 5 year anniversary of this walk.
And, the Magic Show goes on.
