Visit LOTH
I grew up in Ontario (Canada)and have traveled to every province and state and in total over 44 countries. I love both travel and photography - and dogs, cats & kids and friends!
I've lived in the 'burbs of New York City (Westchester); Vermont; Rhode Island, S-W Florida & Arizona, as well as Toronto and western Canada...home of the Rocky Mountains and spectacular scenery and the upcoming 2010 Olympics!
I am "supposedly" retired but work pretty much full time with founding a new Canadian Social club for women annual convention planning.
For me - this says it all:
Wander-Thirst
ALL the credit for this masterpiece goes to Gerald Gould
Beyond the east the sunrise; Beyond the west the sea
And East and West the Wander-Thirst that will not let me be;
It works in me like madness to bid me say goodbye,
For the seas call, and the stars call, and oh! The call of the sky!
I know not where the white road runs, nor what the blue hills are,
But a man can have the sun for friend, and for his guide, a star;
And there’s no end to voyaging when once the voice is heard,
For the rivers call, and the road calls, and oh! The call of a bird!
Yonder the long horizon lies, and there by night and day
The old ships draw to home again, the young ships sail away
And come I may, but go I must, and if men ask you why,
You may put the blame on the stars and the sun,
And the white road and the sky.
