These are the days we waited for in the summer. Days of decision…days of reflection…days of joy. The future looks distant until it is upon us. Suddenly future is past. What a head spinning trip. A joyful and dangerous and complex ride. The realization of plans are more practical than the plan. Things seem a bit abstract until revealed in the light of day. The craggy caverns of the face of the future is known in the mirror of our hopes and dreams.

‘We shall not cease from exploration And the end of all our exploring Will be to arrive where we started And know the place for the first time.’ Little Gidding

‘Someone is coming over the hill,’ the Old Man said. ‘The explorer seems to be running,’ Old Man continued. ‘Let me take another look through the binoculars…he has a familiar face,’ Old Man noted. ‘Traveler is wearing peculiar garments and a Leather Outback Hat,’ Old Man commented.

‘Hello, my friends,’ Strange Traveller said. ‘I have come from a time in the past to see what the future holds,’ ST noted with a wink. ‘My friends call me the Old Man although I am only 35,’ Strange Traveler said. ‘Neva J has a magic floor length mirror that can transport a person or people through time…this is how I got to the Horizon and saw you looking at me through binoculars,’ ST explained. ‘Have you good folk discovered the Secret,’ Strange Traveler asked? ‘I have spent my life seeking the Secret,’ Strange Traveler noted. ‘Back at the Horizon there was a Great Door that was ajar…come with me and we will go through it together,’ ST laughed.
