Blood, stones, and water

I was on holiday last week, a thing I recommend. I wouldn't say that I have returned with a huge surfeit of energy, but I did relax, and it has helped me already make different prioritisation decisions around work. Which included skipping writing a blog yesterday because I had too much else going on and was otherwise too tired. And making this one short and reflective for much the same reason.

We canoed over an aqueduct (whose stones are infused with ox blood). Climbed a hill to a castle. Saw a crow. Good times.
