INVITATION

今日我听了Enya，亲爱的 仿佛我又回到过去 还记得我们的车吗 在草原上缓行 我们听Enya，Bocelli 有时也听Iz 你喜欢把一只手搭在膝盖上 透过蓝色的烟雾看我 而我喜欢在图书馆坐在你的身旁 几个钟过去 目光还滞留在首页的第一行 你一定深深地责怪我了 我能听到你心灵的低语 可记忆犹如永不愈合的伤口 我宁愿忘却 不因为你酒后的妄语 不因为你隐藏的秘密 有时我静坐着 心底却响起歌声 眼前浮现你的面容 这时我想 这样就够了 这样就够了 I listened to Enya today, darling I drifted back to the past Do you still remember our car Roaming slowly across the vast prairie We listened to Enya, Bocelli and sometimes Iz You liked watching me through the thin and blue cigarette smoke one hand resting on your knee I loved sitting beside you in the library letting hours lapse without turning a page You must have blamed me deeply I could hear your heart whispering Yet the past is an open wound too painful to heal I would rather forget not because of your drunken words not because of your well-hidden secrets Sometimes when I sit still I hear songs, arise in my heart and see your face in my eyes I tell myself - This is good This is good

A cool day, not so sunny hot, a bit muddy though, but just right for hiking. The six of us started from Lower Seymour down to the Seymour river valley, then up to Lynn Canyon and back to the starting point. It was a 5 hour trip, over 10 km. We were lost wondering into a residential area, and that took a bit time to be back on the right track.  Dead tree trunk covered by moss, the square hole was a result of axing.  Hollow tree trunk, like a slide.  Rest by the creek. The water was clean and cool, so welcoming on this muddy day.  Woodpecker's favorite tree - the holes were their craft.  Cliff jumping - Step one - get into this pool and swim to the side where the rope is, climb the rope to the top of the rock. At the top of the rock, looking down is the water fall. Jump high and far and you are in the cool water, a natural pool. My view was blocked by the tree. The rock above the waterfall is the jumping platform. ...
