Today, I visited the inner sanctum and along the way had a turkey with cranberry sandwich. Oh, yes. True story.

I met some with great people and had dinner outside while hearing tales of hawks and rabbits. So serene and quiet it was beneath the stars, save for our laughter as we shared stories. Fantastic food as well. Ah, what a blessing. I feel very fortunate.

And I learned that I really need to check the lights on my X-Terra. Not groovy for after dark adventures in unknown territories. But, I made it back to base camp safely, so that’s what counts.

It’s been a long day of venturing old and new trails and now I’m very tired. As much as I’d like to stay up and write or draw, I don’t think it’s going to happen tonight. Not when there are new adventures to be had tomorrow.

Cheers!
