Today's Question(s): Where is your adult 'hiding place?" It can be a real, or imaginary place (childhood playground, the piano, the island of Nilondin [I made that up just now] , etc.). Where do you go when you want to get away from the rat race? I've never really had a hiding place, real or imaginary. If I need time alone I just tell everyone that but if that didn't work I would probably disappear to the park at the nearby lake.
Bonus Question(s): Can you see, from where you are sitting, any kind (real, photo, replica, etc.), of any of the following: a train? a birdhouse? a mirror? a feather? a plant? something holding pencils and pens? pillows? candy?
Just for Fun: If money were no object, and you actually had a place to store it, what "exotic" means of transportation would you like to have: horse and buggie or a jet airplane helicopter? submarine? dirigible? unicycle? other?
