Let The Cruising Begin!


This manipulated photo, shot in Salinas on a busy street, reminds me of another era when cruising was a Friday night activity! Cruising - a word I contemplated Wednesday night while sitting in the ER for another fun-packed evening. Stacy had a 3 hour nosebleed and what is a mother to do but head for the ER and hand the problem over to someone else.
Stacy informed the doctor that she wasn't having a very good year. The very wise doctor said, "And I bet you had hoped that 2005 was going to be an improvement over last year. The good news is that anything that happened last year is now in the past. So, the thing to remember about today is that tomorrow this visit to the ER will also be in the past."
Touche!

Cruising might be prohibited on the streets of Salinas but I'd like to try "moving through life smoothly or effortlessly," or even "travel without destination or purpose." Let the cruising begin!!!
