Huntington Free Day


Sitting at the Pavillion of Three Friends. Smell of bok choi wafts n the air. Sun is beaming warmly. Lake is calm, while the kids run and play. Section is closed off, so I will need to take my pictures from a distance. A quiet day I think I will try my vow of silence for a day. 

Not sure if I will lunch here. May venture to Farmers Market. Blood sugar has been up so I think best to space more time between meals. Been feeling the need for some space. Not sure where its coming from just been losing myself

Learned of thing called a walk about. Just keep walking around until you find yourself. Its been some time since I visited the Blue Boy and the Guttenberg. Last time here I was racing around taking all the pictures  of the different gardens here in the Huntington. Blasting this way and that. Racing from the Rose to the Palm, from the Children's to Chinese, from the Conservatory to the Mausoeum.

Tried to appreciate each and everything, but the broad stroke was too tiring for my weakened heart. Won't pretend to see everything There is simply too much. Guess that is the beauty of this place.

Never been an art lover, but one can't just develop an  appreciation for everything here. Tried drinking in all the artwork and I found my preferences. 

                                                                                                                                   
All these people with these hefty cameras. Honestly, many don't look comfortable. Walking around trying to pose their family members and friends in an artificial image of happiness. The children look around where they can get run to. Some search for the koi. Others chase after the ducks. 

Its a beautiful day and I need to go soon. There still much day to use. There is more gardens to see and its been too long to not enjoy her.
