How about if we venture a little beyond the literal. Yes, there could’ve been lots of photos of people on kayaks and paddleboards…or even photos of the barren hills filled with that magical evening golden light…but why not share a little something different.
Seeing beyond the literal. A contemplative, impressionistic, abstract approach to share an evening that produced an altered state of consciousness without being on drugs! Seriously, one of the best ways to experience euphoria without it being drug induced? Watch the sun set and the moon rise, take a dip in warm waters of Lake Pleasant in Arizona, enjoy a beverage or two around a campfire (complete with roasted marshmallows!) and then return under the light of the full moon. The lapping of the lake water alone will put you in a meditative state. An experience you’ll unlikely forget…
A big thank you to the folks at Go Paddle AZ for an incredible, memorable evening!
Ok…back to Morocco and oh, Chicago too!
…unless something else amazing happens in the interim!
Hope you enjoyed a wonderful full moon weekend!
