A feeling of freedom.
#1
A feeling of freedom.
Wife and I went out for dinner last night with another couple. Outdoor eating at a decent place in a town where they have a Friday night antiques car display. The long main street is fined with old cars...most with the hood and trunk open for inspection. Some are rather mundane...but many are truly old beauties from back when cars were made with a bit of pizzazz in mind.

I shoulda taken some pictures and posted them...and may next week.

BUT the feeling of being out at dinner and walking (without a mask on) through a place with a decent number of people strolling made for a feeling of liberation...of freedom. 

I still wear a mask when in the food market (or anywhere inside where there are people I do not know) and probably will do so for the rest of the year. But almost everyone in town last night was maskless...and smiling.

Just wanted to share the delight I felt with being around others...and feeling relatively safe. I'm naturally a gregarious person...and I had a few beers, so I was speaking with just about anyone who came close. It was fun in a way I haven't felt in quite a while.

Hope all of you have been having the same thing happen for you.
