Just downloaded pictures from yesterday&#8217;s walking, driving, seeing, eating, drinking and finally sleeping (only to wake three hours later wide-eyed). I chose this one as it reflects the latter.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll say it&#8217;s unusual, but you&#8217;ve seen the normal ones of these places.<\/p>\n<p>The truth is it was taken right at the moment the guard said, &#8220;No photos,&#8221; and I put my hands in my pockets and said, <em>&#8220;Que, mi?<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>No importa.<\/em> Today is one of rest and we&#8217;re enjoying a wonderful introvertish time, moving slowly, like two spirits in the land of quiet. Funny how we have to get away to enjoy such simple pleasures.<\/p>\n<h3>New Book<\/h3>\n<h6><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hyattmoore.com\/blank-slate\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Its-About-Life-Front-Cover-115.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7775\" alt=\"It's-About-Life-Front-Cover-115\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hyattmoore.com\/blank-slate\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Its-About-Life-Front-Cover-115.gif\" width=\"115\" height=\"114\" \/><\/a><\/h6>\n<h6>Coming Soon.<\/h6>\n<p>Anne, however, is working . . . proofreading. As it happens, the book I talked about last year (was it last year already?) is finally about to come out in print form. That&#8217;s the gathering of meditations from <em>Ecclesiastes<\/em> originally blogged on this site. The first hard-copy proof was forwarded to us here in Spain, something that impressed me. Anne, I&#8217;m happy to say, was impressed just seeing the book!<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s entitled, <em>It&#8217;s About Life<\/em>, which I felt fitting for such a wide range of topics. It occurred to number it, &#8220;Volume 1,&#8221; leaving the door open for any to follow by the same title. Isn&#8217;t everything about life?<\/p>\n<p>And here we are traveling through it, us in Spain and you wherever. And we&#8217;re communicating . . . because that&#8217;s a part of life too, a very big part.<\/p>\n<p>Enough for now. Maybe I&#8217;ll provide a more conventional &#8220;travelogue&#8221; another day. Or maybe not.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll let you know when the book&#8217;s available. Should be soon.<\/p>\n<p>For now, time for another nap.<\/p>\n<p>__________<\/p>\n<p>PS \u00a0Just in case the fuzzy photo didn&#8217;t satisfy, here&#8217;s one of us in Segovia.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hyattmoore.com\/blank-slate\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Anne-Hyatt-Segovia.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7783\" alt=\"Anne-Hyatt-Segovia\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hyattmoore.com\/blank-slate\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Anne-Hyatt-Segovia.gif\" width=\"650\" height=\"654\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here&#8217;s a photo from Spain, the kind you&#8217;ve not seen before . . . or maybe your camera takes them too.
