Mercifully Happy Interlude

On Sunday, Heather and I took a long hot walk. It was probably a bit too long. And for some reason I convinced her we didn't need to bring any water. We walked out the front door and proceeded to get very hot and very thirsty for the next 3 hours. We made it over to Occoneechee Mountain and eventually made it back home. There was a mercifully happy interlude, spent in the cool shadow of the mountain along the banks of the Eno, where we snapped these photos. And then we had to go back out into the sun. Next time it will be easier. We'll have water.
