Twenty years ago I rode a small bicycle to my elementary school, if not kindergarten. I was six years old, and I finally was allowed to cycle to school on my own!
Today I drive my mother's car out of the small village and to my own home. So much has changed in the village and in me. I think no matter the amount of change happening, I will always love O'kerk. Narrow-minded, rural, impossible to reach by public transport, in the middle of nowhere, but damned pretty.
So! Car has been fetched. I cycled the route in 30 minutes, which is fast. My mom's cats needed petting (she's on holiday. Neil is growing old, fat and 'poezelig' but she still loves cuddles). I'm giving myself a lunch break, then go haul boxes down the stairs and drive to the grounds.
First up: planning a route!
