"A new day, a new dawn."

"A new day, a new dawn."

Although I did not plan it and althought it was far and pretty cold, I went to my Dad today. I took of in morning around 10:00, it was cold but I was dressed warm. I took my time and took here and there a few pictures, such a nice Autumn day, clear blue sky and lots of sunshine, but cold. I took my time but it is still pretty far to drive, it is about twelve kilometers, it takes me 45 minutes usually. When I arrived at my Dad´s place I was exhausted but glad I made it, Dad was happy to see me. I never saw such a big smile on his face. He was dressed nicely and the sun on his face made him look handsome. It is nice to see him like that, I like to see him happy. 

He smilled almost my whole visit, then I thought I should take a picture of him smilling. But when I snapped the picture the smile was gone for a few seconds, grrr! He seems to do that all the time, LOL!
 I had a good time being there, I enjoyed myself. Dad even made a few jokes about his age, next year he will become 75, pretty old for such a handsome guy. He was happy that I did well in my new house and that I have a job. Finnaly he joked, I´m happy for you. It was good to see him, I should visit him more often. So I have been thinking, I think once a month would be good, so I can get my rest between my working days aswell. Would be nice to visit my Dad just before I go to London for five days. It was time to go and hop on my cycle back to my own city. 

A small path that leads to the nearest forest near my Dad´s place.
On my way home I went to my Mom´s grave aswell, that was close to my Dads place. The grave looked tidy only a few nice flowers or plants would be nice. It has been such a long time I visited my Mom´s grave, this did me good aswell. Just standing there, saved a little prayer and telling my Mom I´m doing well. I´m sure she is proud of me aswell. I was double exhausted when I got back home, a long nap and a good lunch did me well. A nice Saturday, I´m glad I went to my Dad, I enjoyed myself. Resting is on my list for tomorrow!
