Because I Could

This is one of my favourite views in the world. I went there yesterday. Because I could.Amazing, isn't it. Wouldn't you go there? You know, if you could.I decided to head over the A66 to Keswick on my day off. I wanted to go somewhere, anywhere really. Because I could.Don't get me wrong, I don't live like that...... 'Because I can' I mean. That would be stupid and dangerous for everyone. There are a lot of things that I don't do even though I could. But it was lovely to be able to go to Keswick just because I could.I love Keswick. I feel happy there. There a so many good memories from all the years of going to the Keswick Convention and from family holidays before that. Memories like sitting on the end of this jetty with Beth, dangling our feet in the water and chatting.No sign of your sewing kit, Beth.The snow topped mountains were just stunning. It was cold in Keswick. That is something that I am definitely not used to there.Paddling didn't seem like a good plan.Even if the water did look incredibly inviting!Seriously, you could jump straight in, right? The sky was so clear and the sun was so bright.The colours were so vivid despite it being the depths of winter. How do people not believe in Creation?Up at Castlerigg Stone Circle, just before sunset, the views were even more spectacular.I was in total awe.What a wonderful day I had.In my own company.With my own thoughts.And all because I could.
