My wonderful hubby and I went out on a date tonight. We started out at the movies, went to see No Country For Old Men. Great flick. Bleak as fuck, but wonderfully acted and beautifully shot.
We went to dinner out in Pasadena, then took a drive up the Angeles Crest Highway. It is so beautiful up there. There was a full moon tonight, so you could see just about everything even though it was dark. And so so quiet. We stopped at the top, with the convertible top down, and turned off the engine and just sat for a few minutes. It’s amazing that just thirty minutes outside Los Angeles, up the mountain, you can reach a place where you can’t hear another soul, just the wind in the trees.
And! We saw a fox. He was very cute. He had big ears. I wanted to take him home with us, but I don’t think he really wanted to.
Sounds like a nice night, bleak movie and all.
Did you know I was born right near Pasadena?? Yep.
i love date nights ~ yours sounds perfect
Hi. My business partner, Ann, just saw that movie as well and really enjoyed it. She posted about it too. I am “tagging” you as part of a meme that is circulating among NaBloPoMo bloggers. If you would like to participate, visit http://www.secretleavespaperworks.blogspot.com for details. Thanks!
