Room to grow: Imagination is the only limit to what you can do with outdoor rooms

摘要

I often live in my imagination, dreaming of places, of mountains and prairies, of cultivated fields, of woods, of rivers and waterfalls, and quiet places where whispers of past and present intersect, where all of the land's cultural influences meld into a blissful Eden. Daydreaming is a mode of expression for me, and I gain joy in the idleness. Ideas swim in my mind as amusing images pass in front of my mind's eye.This happens not only at home, but wherever I go - on hikes, walks around the neighborhood, walking through historic city centers, and riding in a car through the countryside. I especially like to explore the back roads of Alabama and of the South, passing by wild spaces, open fields, houses and barns, churches and cemeteries, structures from the past, all tangible senses of history.
