Drivin' M'self

This is my grandson Liam's 5th birthday weekend, so I drove away from the cabin (me, myself and I) this morning...destination, river home.  Yes, I was driving alone, which I've discovered is a delightful way to travel if one must...I can detour as I choose (specifically for a potty break)...and decide on what news and then music station I want to listen to, eventually tapping my feet, bobbing my head and letting my fingers dance in the air as I put the petal to the metal (figure of speech).  This is how my day developed...

I left the cabin in the early dark of the morning, driving down the our dirt mountain road...

 ...it drizzled in the early morning hours.

 Dawn was foggy...

 ...but if I were to divide the trip in two, the second half was full of daylight.

I encountered delicate grasses in some rest areas...

 

 ...a delightful dolphin in another...

 ...and a dazzling carpet of yellow flowers in yet another.

Once closer to our river dwelling, the docks dotted the scenery...

 ...and soon I arrived at my destination.

It's a long distance for solitary travel, but I am not distressed.  The soothing downbeat rhythm of the lapping waves gives me a comforting diversion.
