Thank God I'm A Country Boy (Girl?)

I have been in a very weird mood the last two days. I would say a mix of on edge and short tempered, not a good combination for customer service. At work I was two seconds from losing it when people kept streaming in well past 12:00pm (when we close, read the freaking door people!). So when SSBF asked me what I wanted to do today the answer was something low key, that involved very little interaction with others. Something not typically easy to accomplish where we live.

Since we have been wanting to do some landscaping around our house we decided to make a drive out to a nursery in Carroll County. We spent a little time at the nursery and then continued on our drive down route 26 until we ended up at SSBF's elementary school, Liberty Elementary. Which was where we took these pictures. Yeah, that cornfield-- next to the school. I always tease SSBF about being a country boy. He denies it, but I think these pictures sealed the deal. Side note: "Thank God I'm a Country Boy" by JOhn Denver is the song the Orioles play during the 7th inning stretch, coincidence?

I was pretty adamant about taking pictures with the silo in the background, SSBF didn't like the wires in the shot, he apparently didn't like the silo either because he blocked it! I am grateful that he is letting me take pictures of him though.

All in all we were probably in the car for about two hours, just driving and taking in the sights while listening to the radio. It was the most amazing and relaxing two hours I've had in a long time. It was nice to just drive and not have to worry about due dates, homework assignments, credit card payments and Enterprise. I was almost sad when we got all the way to Fredrick on the back roads only to get on the highway to come back.

Oh well, I guess we all have to come back to reality at some point.
