Four days and counting

We had the intention of making it to afton today.
But when we hit Charlottesville we had a change of heart.
Meg Lally gave us a place to stay.
We could not say "no", besides it felt smart
to end our journey for the day.
The mountains tomorrow will be our first real start,
but for now we have a soft and clean place to lay.

  1. Wow, that was so masterfully composed that it wasn't obvious until the very last word that it rhymed on purpose!

  3. Hope you didn't get clobbered by the storms that hit DC this afternoon (6/3). Water over the road on Pickett Street when I came home from work.

  4. Let's just say that erica is a great barista and a great baker, but not necessarily the best poet in the world. (yes, it was on purpose)

  5. Hey, I was being serious when I said it was masterfully composed! That takes talent to make something rhyme without sounding forced!
