sound of silence

[rinos]

Sometimes I have a strong desire for silence, and then gather a few belongings and run away to closest possible place with a lack of city noises, this time I needed a little more space, so I drove about an hour, left the car and run for an hour without a goal,and then slowed down a bit .... beauty, absolutely no sound, at least the first few minutes, then natural sounds arrived,sounds that do not create anxiety, but just the opposite.
Gradually relaxing the senses, and adapting to enviroment, trinkets on the grass and the ground appear as under the magnifying glass, :yawn::yawn::yawn:

Amazing country, thanks for sharing! The ruins look ghostly.

I spent a couple years floating around Croatia, Bosnia and Kosovo. I'd forgotten now beautiful things are there. I may have to leave the wife at home and vacation there this summer. I'm sure she would love to come, but she can't be quiet and somehow that would ruin your sounds of silence.

Excellent photos, thanks for sharing. That Mora looks well-used. I had the same model but gave it away at last year's Western New York gathering. What was I thinking?!

I know that sound!

Last night my three boys had some friends over...my head is still ringing. Silence is truly golden sometimes (duct tape is silver BTW).

Your story reminded me of the day I took this photo. I drove an hour and a half, then pulled out my bike and rode like hell for another hour...when I took this the only sound I could hear was my breathing and heart pounding....good times!

Nice looking place. Seems like it would be tempting to drag a roof out there and move in

Yeah, the sound of silence...very therapeutic.
Beautiful country, thanks for posting.
