Texas. Georgia. Indiana. Illinois. Pennsylvania. Delaware.
My very best friend and I are continuing our year of larks. By our definition, a lark is a trip of less than a week; often a weekend long; often planned at the last minute or on a whim.
This lark started as a weekend in Ft. Wayne, Indiana to attend an Indigo Girls/Melissa Ethridge concert and then expanded to travel to Brandywine, Pennsylvania to see an art exhibit we’d heard about on the PBS Newshour.
I flew from Houston to Atlanta to meet up with my very best friend. After a long layover and a delayed flight, we were in Ft. Wayne.
The delayed flight resulted in a wait at the Ft. Wayne airport for our shuttle to our hotel. I decided to seek beauty around me, this time outside the terminal in a construction site. It’s a spiritual practice I’ve been nurturing when I might become anxious or irritable.
Saturday was a free day to explore sights within walking distance of our hotel.
Coffee, of course, to start the day.
Next was the Botanical Garden for a view of “something blue.” That was the title of the current exhibit though it turned out to be more things green and purple and pink with a sort of scavenger hunt for the blue. A very nice search indeed. Especially from our sitting space in our blue chairs.
Our next walk was for a delicious lunch. The walk back to our hotel took us on an unexpected tour of a small portion of the Fort Wayne Public Art Trail.
After this walk, summer hot, it was time for yet another coffee.
The lovely day in Ft. Wayne (who knew?) ended with one short walk to the Embassy Theater for a night of spectacular music and the joy of singing and dancing along with the Melissa, Amy, and Emily.
Grateful. So grateful.
