On the way home from Taos, John and I
pulled over and found a serene little spot tucked beneath chasms of
cascading rock. A little creek trickled through the green velvet
forest below. We stopped to take what may turn out to be my favorite
pic of us together. The one thing I reflected upon was that throughout
our trip, my happiest moments seemed to be when we pulled over
somewhere and communed with nature. Looking up at the stars the night
before, I spotted two meteors streaking horizontally across the
timeless black sky of Taos. I reflected upon John and I on our first
date. He took me to a meteor shower…had we come full circle again?
Or are we just a flash of light, beautiful, memorable, here now and
then…gone?
