at last the country! at last the cold sea air blowing on my face and through my hair. so clean and cold. splashing around in boots, my little sister trailing behind me, it's hard to imagine that london actually exists out there somewhere. i wore i dress today and it made me feel as if i should live out here forever, wearing dresses and thick wool socks and wellies. it's been an amazing time here. molly and i found wild ponies and fed some not so wild fat ponies in a pen. we are staying with an amazing, older, very british couple. they have been perfect hosts to us. she even offered a hot water bottle for the bed so our feet would be warmer.
maybe i should stay. maybe i should live in a boat house on the coast in wales and write and have babies and drink tea. maybe i should have caleb come here and live. we would be happy in the rual country. just us. together with the wild sea and cold english air.
"oh but california! california coming home. i'm gonna see the folks i dig.... california coming home." oh joni. you have it so right. i am leaving england soon. going back. going home. going at last. going home and then finally to the airport and flying to that sunny state where he is waiting for me.
oh england. i will miss you.
oh caleb. here i come...
