Those Spare Moments.......

“Guard well your spare moments. They are like uncut diamonds. Discard them and their value will never be known. Improve them and they will become the brightest gems in a useful life.” 
                                                                                                                                                      ― Ralph Waldo Emerson

A Memorial Day Weekend hike at Liberty Loop Trail on the NY, NJ border.

The Open Road

Afoot and light-hearted I take to the open road,

Healthy, free, the world before me,

The long brown path before me leading wherever I choose.

                            -Walt Whitman (Song of the Open Road)
