Clouds and wind are gone

It was blustery when I rolled in here Wednesday. The rocking and rolling are long gone. It's a beautiful day on the ridge!

What I've Learned

Such delicate goods as justice, love, honor and courtesy, and indeed all the things we care for, are valid everywhere but they are variously molded and often differently handled and sometimes nearly unrecognizable if you meet them in a foreign land, and the art of learning fundamental common values is perhaps the greatest gain of travel to those who wish to live at ease with their fellows.

The Middle of Everywhere, Freya Stark quoted by Mary Pipher, pg 339
