Away

Summertime. The sun in this desert land is relentless and oppressive, rendering all the ordinary tasks -- work and household chores and even family gatherings -- somehow more exhausting. I dutifully march forward, and yearn:  Clouds. Rain. Trees. Reprieve.

Thus, today's earworm:  Cowboy Take Me Away, by the Dixie Chicks.

I wanna walk and not run
I wanna skip and not fall
I wanna look at the horizon
And not see a building standing tall
I wanna be the only one
For miles and miles

I hope you enjoy. And that you find your own reprieve when you need it most.
