Afoot and light-hearted, I take to the open road,
Healthy, free, the world before me,
The long brown path before me, leading wherever I choose.
Henceforth I ask not good-fortuneāI myself am good fortune;
Henceforth I whimper no more, postpone no more, need nothing,
Strong and content, I travel the open road.
note to self: never lose that lust for life
Dreary Weather on Deer Mountain
April 27th, 2010
Running on empty
What chance, gas station mirage
But still slept roadside
April 26th, 2010
Strolled through Jack’s alley
Had no new revelations
Just knew all was fine
April 25th, 2010
Walked the bridge and bay
Hopped the trolleys until dusk
Street singing Otis
April 24th, 2010
Yosemite closed
We made San Fran restlessly
Spent our nights in slums
April 23rd, 2010
Stagg’ring through sand dunes
Whispers amplify on air
No snake socials found
April 22nd, 2010
Sleet soaked desert trails
Long hikes with no money spent
Nirvana hunting
April 21st, 2010
Navajo tacos
Made us run through the Forrest
Camped at the Canyon
