Much happens
In a day
With wet snow clinging to every natural surface, textural outlines are well defined. Grateful for good memories, intimately exploring a local area develops distinctive feature understanding.
“When a man journeys into a far country, he must be prepared to forget many of the things he has learned, and to acquire such customs as are inherent with existence in the new land; he must abandon the old ideals and the old gods, and oftentimes he must reverse the very codes by which his conduct has hitherto been shaped.” – Jack London
Visionary affect
Pleasantly surprised
