Downtime
July 13, 2011
This is my very frequent, post-walk hangout where, 3-4 times a week, a large cafe au lait and poppy seed muffin are had while cooling off and continuing conversations started while powering around the arboretum. Today, no walk, no planned company. I sat here for a few hours (really) and read, caught up on news, wrote, listened to some great music, and had the usual coffee/muffin. No crowds; the students are gone and downtown Davis is relatively quiet. I ran into a very old friend and spent about an hour with another discussing the ins and outs of nonprofit management, and then retirement, and then travel, and then the state of the world.
Feeling like there’s room.. to think, to reflect, to socialize. Am definitely appreciating this time.
