The tourist board here describes Northumberland (northernmost English county, bordering Sotland) as 'land of the far horizon' - and that is a great appeal of hillwalking in the Cheviots. The coasts have a similar flat expansive quality to that picture of Cape Cod. <BR/><BR/>But another horizon is the sky - a blue sky with maybe a few high cirrus clouds, or a clear night sky with visible moon and stars. <BR/><BR/>Living in a city, the sky is perhaps the most important horizon - and its a reason why I find a cloudy climate and weather (eg. Glasgow, Scotland - where I resided 3 years) to be chronically depressing.Editor Theoristhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05523719768353591396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14474631.post-1157777572888123062006-09-09T00:52:00.000-04:002006-09-09T00:52:00.000-04:00Well, of course I misspelled it purposely as an in...Well, of course I misspelled it purposely as an insult to the French,who got on my bad side with those cheeses that smell like sweatsocks, and that sauce. You know the one. Bernaze. Yeah, that's it. <BR/><BR/>I imagine the woman who called the police is French. Are you taking her side in this? Trespassing and spelling.

When I leave my back door open and glance through it to see the morning light illuminating the flowers, it stabs my heart with its loveliness. The frame creates a kind of inaccessibility, which then creates yearning. Which is one of the loveliest ways to suffer...<BR/><BR/>And to the lover of orthography, may I point out that the correct spelling is "quotidian?"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
