Mount Adams
Leave before dawn - to Tahawus.... Upper Works... this time to cross a suspension bridge, and climb 1800 ft. to the Fire Tower - and, with any kind of luck... make it to the top to take a few shots. Gulp. Stay tuned.
On waiting -
The Peace of Wild Things
by Wendell Berry
When despair for the world grows in me
and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be,
I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.
I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought
of grief. I come into the presence of still water.
And I feel above me the day-blind stars
waiting with their light. For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.

dumping physical memories
my computer has been crashing and alerting me with this warning - "Dumping Physical Memories".
Mmmm.
Wish it were so easy.
Hard to dump most physical memories.
Is that a bad thing?
Depends.
Tomorrow I will climb an almost 46er.
It's supposed to snow.
I'm ready.
