I could only imagine...

....what the guy was thinking when he decided to put his deck chair on the top of his house and climb up with his laptop to type away as the sun was setting. I was riding my bike after dinner and saw his silouette and the glow of the screen in the distance and as I got closer, I could not stop smiling and wanted to applaud. He was on the peak of the roof, legs of the chair balanced on either side of the roof slopes of a two story house with legs stretched out, relaxed and typing away with the colors of the sunset over the ocean and the mountains as his view. What is our preoccupation as a species with high places? Did he have this uncontrollable urge to just be up high somewhere and decided the roof was as good as the mountain and better because it had wi-fi access? I wanted to come home and climb my roof, but instead circled my bike back up and down that stretch of road so I could watch the sun go down with his icon image against it.
