just around the corner

Camera bag slumped over one shoulder, laptop wire over the other- although it may be trailing me on the ground. Do I dare turn around? My slick-bottom European shoes prove to be a threat on ice… do I risk my laptop and my camera? Nahhh. It’ll dry.
The winter is slightly depressing this year. A serious lack in the snow department has deceived me into thinking it’s almost March. Imagine my disappointment when I see January on top of the calendar page. I love winter. I like sledding and scarves (two obvious must-haves)… but I like winter. This, this slush, 0 degree weather is not winter. The fact that I can still see small shrubs attests to that.
That’s it. I’m running away to Central America. For real, I am! In just over 2 weeks I’ll be landing in sunny Costa Rica and then busing it to Panama City.
I’m so excited! Fresh pineapple! Sun! Fresh pineapple! Friends! It’s a rough itinerary, I know.
