  • Monday After Vacation (DNC Blues)





    I don't ordinarily grouse after a vacation, especially after a week in the Scottish Highlands where all my internal angst or whatever you call the inner tension I walk around with had washed away.  My traveling companions remarked that I was completely in the ... "whatever."  I had reached a wonderful state of NOW in those mountains.  I'll try to keep that Zen going ... well maybe I can by not complaining about the future of my day as I try to make my way to downtown Boston.  Yes, maybe I did take back something from the Highlands, something special indeed.  On the bike and off to work!


    If you ever do get to Northern Scotland you'll notice the air.  What an amazing absence of all the mix that makes us not notice the air we breath.  Clear and fresh this mix of inhaled refreshment.  If you do go, I hope the exchange rate was better than it was to us.  I took out 100 GBP from the ATM, it showed up at my bank as $189!  Well worth it
