Time also moving on...

This morning, almost two weeks ago (tomorrow) into my cross-country journey, I am going to attend to a little blog-keeping, as it were...

First, I apologize to those of you following my blogging adventure, and requesting accompanying photos, for the lack of same. It seems to be that I am not, in general, interested in documentation that involves technology more complicated than that already readily at my fingertips (or in my brain). My sense is that perhaps one day I will go there, however for now, I have more than enough on my plate. So for those of you looking for visuals, I would ask you simply to bear with me, and use your delightful imaginations.

A second item of explanation, as it were, pertaining to the randomness of my cd selections (should you have wondered), and their order, or lack thereof, as well as my choice to listen to them in their entirety (as opposed to compiling, as some of my more ambitious friends have chosen to do, and whose resulting gifts to me over the years I treasure immensely...)...the cd's were culled from my out-of-control collection while packing, and reflect a random selection of those titles that I either had not listened to in years, or in fact could not remember at all. My thought was that this was at long last an ideal opportunity to catch up on my listening, enjoy some old friends, and then feel free to divest myself of those cd's no longer likely to enhance my listening experience. So they all got randomly, again, tossed in a Trader Joe's traveling bag adorned with surfboards, along with some reading material for the journey, and have been pulled out and played, again randomly and with joyous surprise and abandonment discovered anew by my ears. (no particular recommendations are to be inferred by their inclusion in the listening list...)

Finally, at least for this morning, I intend to continue for a few last days, to update my thoughts on these two weeks of traveling, in the hopes that you my readers will enjoy even a taste of the quiet euphoria that this odyssey is bringing to me...

WHAT a beautiful morning...(as usual, sigh...)

Yours in simple bliss,

Christina
