Veni, vidi, vici
Ok. Maybe conquer is a bit much, but it was a successful trip. I’ll get around to documenting it shortly. Thanks for your kind comments. I’m sure you missed me while I was gone, but now I’m back and better than ever. Or at least no worse for wear.
I walked 48 miles starting Saturday and finishing yesterday. I saw many beautiful things, I experienced extreme heat and humidity, and I thought. I spent hours walking, and my mind wandered. I thought about many things: my job and my family, nature and human nature, my misspent youth, the state of the nation and the state of man. If I get these thoughts in order, I’ll try to put them out there for you to chew on.
I’ll also try to get the story of my week together before too long. Until I do, here are some of the highlights. I met some interesting folks my fist night, I had a huge (2000 Ft) descent followed by a bigger (3000 Ft) ascent. I saw some interesting creatures: a salamander, a toad, a deer, some songbirds, some hawks and vultures, and some mice.
