Dance Upon The Mountains

“Come fairies, take me out of this dull world. For I would ride with you upon the wind and dance upon the mountains like a flame.”
W.B. Yeats
 
One of the hardest things about the two years of  Covid is not being able to get out as easily and to places like I normally would. Last October I drove up Rt. 1, up the coast, after attending my brother's wedding in Arizona and it was incredible. Now I hear the call of the Sierras. Whenever I go, it is like, to paraphrase Yeats, riding on the wind and dancing like a flame. It has been far too long and the world far too dull. 

In the next weekend or two, I will answer that call.
