gorge, a glimpse

 Today we went hiking in the rain. 

This might seem crazy to some of you. 

But we looked at the forecast, 

and looked at each other, 

and grabbed ponchos to wear and dry clothes to leave in the car, 

and spent the sabbath here

in the Vintgar Gorge.

"[...] what a piece of wonder a river is – A huge volume of matter ceaselessly rolling through the fields and meadows of this substantial earth making haste from the high places, by stable dwellings of men and Egyptian pyramids, to its restless reservoir." 

--Henry David Thoreau, Journal, September 5, 1838 (qtd. here)
