Ode to a Horniman

There was a cool little healing festival held on top of mountain here in town. There is a little hike you can take to a bluff which I took off on and was able to catch this beautiful vista and incredibly cheesy kodak moment. It's suppose to, you know, capture my warrior woman embarking fearlessly on her continuing adventures belly first? From this spot I was able to see the Horniman here:

(If you squint your eyes you can see it) It was pretty emotional seeing in one direction the property we've owned for five years endowed with so much of our dream energy and Craig's muscle energy and then in the end, even after submitting our building permit and booking our builder, letting it go. But it was also really exhilarating to turn my head to the left and see our new house (well, the driveway at least) four kilometers away where all our happiness and dreams are being lived out in a different, unforseen way. Yeah, we sold the Horniman. The day after this photo op we went to the lawyer's office to sign off on the sale.  But, that's okay, the Horniman has served us well and I thank it for all that magic it has brought to our lives.

Hey dear,
I'm happy and sorry to hear about the sale of the Horniman. I'm sure that magic will follow you wherever you are, though-- esp. a mere 4 km away!

PS: Love the warrior woman photo.
