Week 5

Week 5 starts in Maine.  The first 4 have been restful - lots of fresh air, time to think, chance to finish sewing projects and actually spend some time playing on the internet.  Ha!  Also - I have learned a few things about drm.  I have learned that I am used to having "people".  I actually don't know how to do a lot of things myself.  I can run a multi million $ project but I am confused about how to fix the tv screen.  I am confused about how to load the right browser so I can upload photos.  I am confused about how to start a stupid fire.  I am worried about walking in the woods.  I am sleepless alone in a house.  I have no idea how to turn the alarms off (or on).  I don't know many how-to-take-care-of-things things.  So, I am learning.  While I sure do like to have "people", I find myself without them at this time and the show must go on - so I am learning.   And I carry a big stick in the woods to fend off bad men and beasts. Hunting season is in full swing.  Lots of both in the woods I think.
Lucy was so anxious to get outside today.  Sometimes I think I can hear her talking to me saying "When are we going out? Can we go out now? Are you almost ready to go out? About time to go out?"  She loves to go out (!).  We went to the top of our trusty dirt road - steep climb with lots of great sniffing spots and a big puddle at the top for some serious splashing around.  She seems to like to climb on rocks and look out into the wild.
 Then we headed to the river.  It was very loud and we wanted to see if the cairn that we started was still there.  We did not see or hear another human all day.  No voices.  Just lots of rushing river and lots of wind through the trees.  Actually a very windy day today but warm, and awesome.  Rushing river, howling wind and a happy dog.  It was a good day.
