Five days later

My second full day in North Carolina started like this...

and progressed to this...

and this.

Then - in the blink of an eye - everything changed.

In what seemed like seconds but also years, we went from this...

to this...

and this.

I'll write more about all of it eventually, but not yet. 

I still have a pony to ride hug, and that's what I need to do.
