I had to take a trip to England over the weekend. Flying out Friday night I drove up to Northern England on Saturday morning. It is just days away from the June 21st equinox and at midnight I found myself on the top of the Yorkshire moors taking photographs. Right now it never really gets dark at that latitude.
Sunday saw me blasting south to Sussex in 'the fastest car in the world' (a rental) and took care of more business Monday morning, then drove to Heathrow for an afternoon flight home to NYC, just in time for dinner with my wife Lisa. Strangely enough I'm not tired at all. No jet lag. Maybe it's the Red Bull? Whatever. Anyway, what is even more amazing is that the trip was to hook up with my Brother and Sister to scatter our Mothers ashes and I actually enjoyed the trip!! I was expecting to feel miserable, ache at the recent loss and struggle with emotions as people are prone to do at such events. The reality was quite different and the feeling of family was as strong now as ever. Such a relief.
When I finally made it back to the store today I was met by an infestation of catterpillars!! They were everywhere, crawling uo the walls. 20 minutes with the vacuum cleaner put things back to normal but I still don't know where they are coming from.
