Sara, the trip sounds incredible! Welcome back!
It's good to have cargo. Makes us a target for every other scavenger out there, though, but sometimes that's fun too.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That all sounds incredible, sarameg! Welcome home.
I hope the rest of your trip home is easy, Dana.

I only really lost it with them one day, and while I could have handled it a lot better, they bear part of the burden. But most of the time I found ways to deal. If only they'd understand when I tell them to stop pulling the tiger's tail (using that expression or just "you are making me really unhappy") I MEAN IT.
But that's all the whine I really have.
I climbed to the Tiger's Nest, some 2K feet UP from the start of the trail: [link] Halfway, sweaty me: [link]

That's all for tonight. Just to whet.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Gorgeous!

Oh man, sara, that is truly magnificent and you're absolutely glowing.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Holy crap. And to be there for the eclipse! Man.
