Summer dance 350 Harley D. on holidays by HappyDaysForever1945 on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

Harley D. has a secret that is actually no secret at all.
She works a lot, is often in a hurry, and it's easy to see that she leads a very modest, even austere, lifestyle. A significant part of her time is taken up by vehicles, machines, lubricants and noise... She likes it, but like any enthusiast, she puts a lot of energy into it and sometimes gets tired.

She found out that it's needed quite frequent changes to maintain her willingness to work. That's why she runs away to the mountains for the weekend... She has her own place that can't be reached by any vehicle... and that's why there are no tourists there. To get in the mood, she leaves the car several kilometers earlier in the village, always in the same place, in front of a friendly shop. Usually she buys some things to eat there, repacks her backpack and goes.

Most often she goes barefoot. This comes as no surprise to anyone who knows her. As she says, this way she feels the mountains, the earth and rest better. She has never hurt herself because she just looks at her path. This is her way of calming down and leaving the work week behind.

She reaches the lake in the mountains via a rather inaccessible path that a friend showed her when she was finishing school. She swims in the lake, sunbathes on the rocks, eats food bought in the shop in village, listens to the birds and the wind. She runs on the stream, splashes in the cold water. She sleeps one night under the open sky... Sometimes there is a storm in the mountains - it is quite dangerous, but Harley, contrary to appearances, has some experience and knowledge, knows how to protect herself and always has a working phone with spare batteries... If it were very bad – can call for help. In such situations, just in case, she calls his friends to tell them exactly where she is... and that everything is fine at the moment and that next time she will call at a specific time so that they don't worry. Before going to the mountains, she leaves on the store a well-marked map with the trail she is taking - this way it would be easier to find her if necessary.
She returns on the second day in the evening. At the same time, she also does some shopping for home. The store owner is nice enough to keep the things she bought on Saturday morning cool until Sunday evening... After all, they've known each other for several years... and she repaired his tractor.
