Where I was Yesterday..

It’s been a month and a half in Florence so I feel it’s about time for another Florence post. I spent this weekend within the city limits; naturally that calls for some more city exploration (swtichin gears on my bike whip!). I decided to follow the river to the northwest (I went southeast last time). I didn't make it quite as far as my last quest, yet the winds of fortune once again guided me with favor and provided plenty opportunities to stop and tie my shoes. I set a park named "Il Boschetto" as my goal for the day. It took the use of a few muscles I forgot I had and a little bit of sweat to get to the park, which is conveniently placed on top of a very steep hill. However the reward was worth the pain. Il Boschetto is by far the most scenic and relaxing park I have spent time in. The day was overcast, but little to no rain. Everything was green, mature trees and bushes. In the neighboring orchard a man was burning his brush (contemplated, but did not hop the wall) it all had a deep nostalgic feel to it. Very reminiscent of what how is like in the winter. I took many deep breaths to fill my lungs with the smells and closed my eyes to hear the sounds. It did not feel like I was in a city. 

I posted up on a bench beneath a tree that offered great protection from the light rain. It was so quiet I didn't want to do much at first. I eventually got around to writing some letters (looking at you Mr. President, we got some stuff to talk about), reading one of my books, and doing some good thinking (revelation of the day: Hillary Clinton is a women!) I said maybe 4 words till the late afternoon and those were just to order my lunch. It was interesting to be inside my head all day and let my mind go without music (we miss you Watson) and see how my mind moved (I think I might have been abducted by aliens at some point in my life)

 This one is a recreation of an acutal event. Its called: "looking at the ground while walking"

Anyways I’ll post some pictures of that day and this weekend. Again there are two staged photos in this post. I sacrifice my dignity to appease my followers. Consider yourselves privileged and slightly at fault for the loss of my dignity.
