Uitwaaien is a Dutch word that cannot be fully translated into English: it literally means "to walk in the wind," but in the more figurative and commonly used sense, it means "to take a brief break in the countryside to clear one's head."

Posted notes: The laughing birds...
The other day, I witnessed a bird fly into a glass screen door. I immediately started laughing, a veritable fit of hysterics that would incite alarm in several small villages. However, this made me think about how many frequent times I, the fallible mailman, have walked into tree branches. This led me to believe that the birds, after witnessing my affable follies, have been chuckling at my antics the entire time. Instantly, I was transported via walking reveries to imagine a world where humans are forever a source of entertainment for nature and wildlife...fascinating, eh?
