Life in technicolor
October 13, 2007

We find boulders in the most beautiful places. In fields freshly ploughed. In forests radiant with color. In meadows scattered with purple clover.

We had just come from climbing and decided to stop here, just for fun. Frank immediately gets on a little problem. And another. And another. "Easy," he says. And I?

And of course, there are no directions to this little slab of limestone. Or, if pressed, I might say, "From X village/field/house drive X kilometers, turn right/left at X sign/house/building, park X meters, and walk across/to the left/to the right." If I like you enough, I might just show you where it is.
