If you were wondering why it’s been so quiet round here again, I spent last week on vacation and away from all things political, cinematic, or electronickal in nature, as two old friends and I hiked the Olympic National Park in Washington State, from North Fork to Obstruction Point, by way of Hayden, Lost, Cameron, and Grand Passes — Total trip: 53 miles or so. [Some pics here.]
All in all, great fun. The only blemish on the trip, some soreness and sunburn notwithstanding, was my old boots deciding to spontaneously implode around Mile 15. Fortunately, duct tap and particularly a pair of Yak Trax saved the day on that front.
whoa you don’t kid around when you go on vacation
Hiking til your boots explode…that sets the bar pretty high
Surprising you didn’t sail the rigging off your
sailboat adventure…
