a significant day

i love to get lost....to follow roads past the boundaries of familiarity...to just keep driving. i have serendipitously learned that many backroads will lead you straight to the heart of nipgen!
i relish that feeling of having no idea where i am.
the openendedness thrills me.
so much to discover.
i am christopher columbus on quest for new land.
tonight i found a new road at scioto trails and followed it up, up, up through sparkling yellow woods, which kept luring me further and further with long, beckoning rays. i found the new world at 4:00pm but couldn't stay because i had a senior portrait session at 4:30pm.
i seriously want to camp. i nodded to a lone camper whose site was just south of the main campground. we exchanged that look that said - "this is the place to be".
this is a significant day.
