away from people

So went to bear valley last night its about 157 miles back east. Beutiful country. Erics cousin eathen has a very nice cabin up there. Very nice its red wood, three sories tall has a sauna, a lake not 10 min walk away, and snow mobiles though, there was no snow but it was very cool. Its elevation is approx 7,350 feet why up in clean aired goodness. It almost pains me to go out to such places because i dont want to come back. I just want to spend my days exploring and searching and communing with all that exists outside of ou humanistic imperfect world. Big problem for that place though was everyone was rich. the vibe was strange its hard to be stuck up when everything natural around you dwarfs all you could ever do. Mountains lakes, trees, rocks, the sky.. The sky now that was amazing, at night there were stars billions apon billions, i could see the spiral arm, and planets and saw at least 4 shooting stars, it was infinite, and so much like a roof that sat just a couple more miles above with holes cut in it straining light from unknown sources. I could be lost in it foreverr given the chance. Id gladly take it too. Life is an adventure, ups , downs, old new, back forth, red blue. All diffrent experiances culminating to an advanced copy of something thats alreaady happened. The world seems much more real the farther you get from civilisation. Maybe our global contiousness is really just us dreaming of something less real, and our cities and goals are monuments to that.

All said it was awsome, i love being free. Me and barry came back this afternoon because we both had stuff to do, we had an awsome conversation on the way back revolving around life and what we cant see. So it was heavy handed and quite refreshing. We stopped in angels camp for some ice cream but settled for iced coffe instead, we stood by the post office smoking ciggerettes drinking our coffee and watching the townsfolk meander about. They have a frog walk of fame, bronze insets in the sidewalk telling the legends of the frogs wich one the annual calaveras frog jumping contest for the last 100 odd years. I like this town. Even saw a cute girl window shopping with her mother, who stopped to pat a large frog statue on the head, that was sexy. I have odd taste in woman no doubt, there wasnt even anything extrodinary about this girl, asthetically, but like us all she had something. I tried to make eye contact to see what she was but she diverted her eyes when she looked and saw me looking at her. Theres always something there, but its amazing how sometimes we can see more then whats apparant. I wish she wouldnt have been with her mom. Hitting on girls while there parents are present is a bit disturbing. At least to me. Any way fun trip good times and its only saturday night. Lets see if we can get any legends to write themselves by monday.
