The View From Here

The path up the Nose Hill isn't really a path but more of a runoff for water.  It's a bit of a challenge in sandals not really made for hill climbing.  But the top is worth the hike just for the view.

The book I'm reading right now is rather like that - unexpected.  Still Alice should be nothing if not depressing.  A story of a woman's struggle with early onset Alzheimer's, it is a book that has me turning the pages, reluctant to put it down.  That was unanticipated.  But then I find books like that, often the gem is hidden in subject matters I don't tend to explore or authors I have for one reason or another missed. 

Rather like this trip up the hill that began with a walk through this unimposing tunnel, gems are often hidden.  Sometimes veering slightly off the path leads to something unexpected.  Whether it's a walk up a hill in foot gear unprepared for such a venture, or picking up a book that is like nothing you've ever read before.
