As I read, and then watched and listened, I began not for the first time to question why I choose to live in a city.<br /><br />Thank you for delivering that question.<br /><br />Earlier on this extremely hot and humid day, I met a friend at the Met and we spent over an hour in its air conditioning looking at magnificent gouache miniature paintings created in India in the 1600s, some even earlier. Many featured stylized landscape settings. They brought their own music.<br /><br />Seeing your post this evening reinforces how beautiful nature has been for a very long time, even with humans roaming the earth.<br /><br />Thank you!Franceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2505385214324438018.post-62622876296642533672016-07-18T15:25:56.413-07:002016-07-18T15:25:56.413-07:00Fab.Fab.Tom Stephensonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05979590950587415840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2505385214324438018.post-38304881472799199422016-07-18T15:25:34.979-07:002016-07-18T15:25:34.979-07:00Don't know.Don't know.Tom Stephensonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05979590950587415840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2505385214324438018.post-31424160701221467792016-07-18T14:52:23.878-07:002016-07-18T14:52:23.878-07:00We often go to The Orchard Grantchester .... are G...We often go to The Orchard Grantchester .... are Grantchester meadows near there ?
