Just a few hours out and a few hours back,
Winding down backroads and seeing the view,
Rolling through towns, fields, and pastures,
Rediscovering the old as though something new.
We call it a day trip, an excursion or outing,
But it’s much like our lives every day, too—
Learning, growing, seeking, and working,
Rediscovering the old as though something new.
