July 20, 2011

Of all the time I spend at the Greenbelt, there is still so much of it I have yet to see.  We tend to traipse the same six or seven miles out, and back, our heads focused on water, form, and breathing, while our eyes are focused on not missing the stump, low-hanging branch, or jutting rock.  On top of this, it has been weeks since I've seen much of the Greenbelt with the sun overhead.  Taking a different route this evening, we came across a look-out point.  As I got closer to the edge, I cursed myself for forgetting my camera, as only a panoramic would even begin to do this view justice.  The treetops seem to stretch for miles, with homes peeking out here and there, hiding the reality that Austin lives within this beautiful landscape.  I hope I never cease to be jaded by any of this and I hope I never take it for granted.
