West Pinnacles.

I am breaking my silence with this-http://bit.ly/1kaGCy

Small fire, but somewhere I spent a great deal of time as a child. Wildfires are common in the summer in CA, and there isn't much of the park that could burn and not be rebuilt easily. But I would like to share. My mom helped build a great deal of trails here. I was left to my own devices most of the summer while she worked back in the day when a child was safe to roam alone. My mom loved to tell stories of how I would find campers and lead them around to all the sights that were off the trails. I can still find Bridal Veil Falls and make my way through the caves with no flashlight. This is one of the places I call home.

This sums up my life the past five months.

Live and Learn

I harvested what is most likely going to the the last crop of my garden. I cannot even begin to write about how sad this makes me. I'll try to enjoy the fresh tomatoes, basil and oregano salad I'm planning for dinner. And what to make with the eggplant and peppers? The red corn is growing now, but will not be ready in time. I really wanted to try that!

I haven't posted for awhile. Quite a bit is going on and I'm just not ready to write here about it. For now, I made a mistake.
