Day 21 - Back to nature

Today's blog is being brought to you from a much higher place.  No, not religious and I'm not stoned.  I am in Colorado where we will be getting back to nature.  So higher in elevation...no, I'm not going to get high while I'm here.  High on life is enough for me.  No need for additives.

We started our morning off with the gods, as in the Garden of the Gods.  How gorgeous to see those red rock formations protruding from the ground.  Truly one of natures finest works of art.  As we walked through we saw lots of wildlife as well, a couple deer, a bunny, and some beautiful birds...as well as those of the 2-legged kind.  Those were the ones I could live without.

I guess today's blog is going to be more of a story and a rant because while we were there, the natural sounds of silence with occasional talking of passers by or giggling of children as they ran thru nature's maze, we ran across some of 'those', you know the ones.  As you are sitting there reading this I am sure your mind is wondering to the rude people you have come across in your life.  The ones we dealt with today decided that blaring music was necessary while they were strolling through.

Headphones would be fine.  I understand how it can be deafening when it is too quiet, but come on.  Why in the world would people think we all needed to hear the crap they call music in a place that most have come to enjoy the quiet and serenity of nature.  Oh well, you can't fix stupid.

At least we were able to enjoy each other's company in a place so beautiful.
