What you didn’t know….

Sure.   I am a self-confessed home body.  No question about it.  I like being home more than anywhere else in the world.
I am home now, and it feels good.

But sometimes it is nice to get out and see the sights.  Smell the smells.   Taste the tastes.    You get the idea.  Hear the heres.

The past couple of days, we went to Indy and kicked around the city a bit.  I really hadn’t been there in about a hundred years.   Since I went to Butler University.  (Shout out to all the Bulldogs in the world.)

At any rate, we explored and learned and enjoyed.

Some of it made us happy.   Some of it made us sad.

But all of it made us more aware of the world in which we live.   And I am very aware now…. of  things I never knew before.  In all my years.

Around every minute of the day, there are intriguing and mysterious things for us to find.  If we look.

I find this this characteristic of life…. to be a pretty incredible thing. And I am thankful that we can explore, as we can.

Especially when you find pizza at Izzy and Harry’s.
