Monte Sano soothe
I have always loved the
phrase “Rocky Mountain High” and interpret it as that high one gets from being
at an altitude, in fresh air, surrounded by mountains with nary a car, house or
human in sight (with the exception of those with whom might choose to hike).
Here at my brother’s I love
being up above the city, in a happy home, one facing not the city (as most
would seek), but the rolling hills of northern Alabama (sorry they just aren’t
mountains). My morning walk takes me on
a loop and although it is a residential district most of the outer houses are
some distance from the street, there are no sidewalks, most of the lawns are
not pedicured and many sprout a sign saying that they are wildlife compatible. One sees not only the pets, but also the
squirrels and the birds: it is soothing, especially when I have Stormy (the
dog) at my side.
