Now that I’m here on the Left Coast, I don’t drive (a car) anymore, so making it to the Pacific Crest Trail is a dream unfulfilled. Have to make do with shorter treks, such as from my desk to the refrigerator for another beer. Or from home to the library, or to Trader Joe’s for dinner fixin’s.

We did get to the East Sierra this summer, our annual July 4th journey, away from the land of aerial bombs, M-80s and various other devices of noise and destruction, back to land of bare rock, desert sands and the sun glaring off of the salt pan. And silence, blessed silence.
