New Beginnings

I just came back from a superb day away on a little farm tucked away in a secret corner around Citrusdal. What can I say?
Absolutely amazing experiance.

The farm predominately cultivates oranges, and its quite a sensory arousal going out for a walk among the orchards with the zingy scent of citrus floating by. I managed to take a fair amount of photos over the course of the morning, celebrating the fact the clouds came out to play. Besides the stinging wild fynbos plants and the heart stopping bellows of nearby but unseen Baboons, it was mostly a pleasing and therapeutic session...just me, my camera and mother nature. I would most defintely be back, as the road that takes you from Cape Town up along the West Coast is coming alive with lush green wheat fields. It would be a dream to submit a wallpaper I feel proud of, so lets go!

It made me realize I spend way too much time city slicking, when I could be enjoying the beautiful solitude of nature! Wouldn't it be awesome to live up all the hyped life and anxiety, substitute it with a pinch of simple living, the way our fore-fathers did it. Now that would be the life! Minus the Babooons of course.
