Most days I am way too lazy to leave work during lunch. I usually find a quiet place to read and eat a tv dinner or sandwich.
However, on Friday I felt like getting out since it was such a beautiful day. I took my camera over to a nearby nature center. I quickly ate my sandwich in the car and then walked a trail before I went inside to check out the turtles in the center’s indoor pond.
After watching the turtles swim around for awhile, I came back outside to check out the flowers and surrounding landscape. Once I had explored everything, I sat at one of the picnic tables and just enjoyed the sounds of nature. It was so relaxing and before I knew it, I had to go back to work to the stale air-conditioned air and a sunless cubicle. It was nice while it lasted!
Very nice!
