Adventure

I probably whispered, “I am a desert creature" a dozen times on this hike.

Deadwood and Devil's Tower all in one day!

All and all, a lovely day.

Seriously, go. Now!

San Diego, even foggy, is a lovely town.

I thought getting onto the Skyline-to-the-Sea trail felt like a milestone, but I still had so many miles to go.

I could not help feeling that they were evil things — mountains of madness whose farther slopes looked out over some accursed ultimate abyss.

So I did it. I said yes after a month of wrangling and now I write this from a one bedroom apartment in Sunnyvale California. It still isn’t real to me, feeling more like a business trip than a relocation. This going to take some getting used to.
