Random thoughts (and pictures) as I wander North and West - and eventually home again.
Mile 6,545: Somewhere in the Yukon
Posted 05-08-2009 at 08:48 PM by Surreal
The full moon is rising over the shoulder of a mountain in front of me while the sun is setting behind the mountains in the west. It's crisp, but above freezing. I'm nestled into a parking lot for a recreation area - snow banked up all around.
This is where sleeping in the car is superior to a tent or RV. After I get chilled watching the moon, I crawl into my nest and watch it some more through all the windows.
I've done a lot of thinking on this trip. The long empty drives ensure contemplation...a driving meditation. I've dragged out bits of my guts and taken a hard look - some of it, I didn't much like.
I've chosen a direction... which is what I came out here to do and I'm feeling that first thread of passion that foretells hard work towards success.
Good night and sweet dreams.
