Early Morn Commute

You're only here for a short visit.
Don't hurry. Don't worry.
And be sure to smell the flowers along the way.
Walter Hagen

Sometimes if you have to catch an early morning BART you may find it's just you and one/two other commuters. In the silence you watch the sun play along the seats. You sink into contemplation and relaxation.  For a few moments there are no worries. Just the soft click of the rails and the warmth of the morning.

Just Another Monday

Mondays should be optional.
Unknown

I am not a morning person by nature. Add Monday morning to the mix and I move even slower then usual. Eventually I will get to where I have to be usually fueled by a morning cup of java. It is getting ready to rain here so it's also a little misty and grey. Saw these boots while visiting the beach and they made me smile. A bit of unexpected whimsy. So this AM I am dedicating them to all the people who are not morning or especially Monday Morning folk. Find something that makes you smile and Monday might not be so bad.
