Yesterday afternoon while out toolin' on the Rubester I discovered a hidden secret place in the neighborhood, or at least new to me! A neighborhood church, located on a furthermost mesa, that juts out over a canyon, overlooking the freeway beyond, ....built into the hillside it sits on, there's now an outdoor area to hold services! Never knew that before! It's way tucked away, hard to see from the street! There's benches, and you can sit right on the edge of the mesa looking out...SO peaceful! To me (with a little imagination) it looks like a mini Stonehenge....lol!
So I plopped meself down to cool my heels, take-in the sunset, say a prayer or two to the Great Known and Great Unknown, and find that all is right with the world for the moment. This will be a seriously good fireworks viewing spot come July 4th! Ain't it purty?
So, after basking in my secluded "peace", I hop on Ruby, head toward home, and some gal pulls up alongside me going the same direction on HER bike, nearly identical to mine. She strikes up a conversation saying...
She: "Hey, same bikes! My husband got me mine for Xmas to help work off my baby weight."
Me: Same here!
She: Oh really? How old is your little one?
Me: My youngest is 20.
She: Really? Mine is 22 months! Do you live close? Maybe we could get our little ones together for a playdate or bike rides with baby seats!
Me: Um...mine is 20 YEARS!
STILL working off some baby weight! LOL! (:::snort:::)

It was such a neat surprise to be riding along the edge of the canyon and come across that place! There's probably all kinds of hidden nugget places like that in every neighborhood...one need only explore a bit! ;)
