Rainy Days

Getting one of two buses back home to drop off my guitar and debate going back to class. Having my umbrella fold into itself as the wind humbles me severely.

Clapper bridge on the river Avon on Dartmoor

My favorite place to camp. On a lucky morning the wild ponies come down to drink from the river and I get out of the tent to find myself surrounded by them.
