MOUNTAIN TIME: ADDENDUM

7/16/13 
Mountain people, who live in cadence with mountain time, experience life in a timely manner---"whenever." "Soonish." Business might open one day and not the next---just check our the sign.
 "ish" is it's own hand on the clock.

Store sign in Cashier, North Carolina---8/14/13
Regardless of "time zone" parameters,  you know you're on mountain time when you......

  • sleep when you're tired, 
  • wake up rested with fewer hours of sleep, 
  • have sounds of a running creek, heard though an open window, to "lull" you to sleep, 
  • are as delighted with a rainy day as well as a sunny one, 
  • understand that the march of time slows down to a walk or a rocking chair's rhythm and even a turtle crossing the road can catch your attention. 
Mountain Time----somewhere between resting and relaxing with lots of "fixin' to" intervals in its measurements.
