so i just got back from my tromp in seattle and all though i have much to say about the voyage i felt like you would all rather see it than read about it from me.  sufice it to say that i could very happily live in the pacific northwest for the rest of my life, and i haven't even tried the kayaking yet.

enjoy, 

these are a few of my favorite things

so i just got back from washington where i spent a few amazing days trouncing around. i am sure that i will have more to say about it later, but for now sufice it to say that i could live very comfortably for the rest of my life in the pacific northwest. allow me to show you why

the rain shall come, and corpses become roses, there's a hidden beauty finding it's way out of everything

so there's a hidden beauty finding it's way out of everything. i wish that i could be the kind of person that saw that beauty. i tend to lean to the negative side of things, i don't know why and i try and change and be positive but my initial response is always the negative. There is a trip going out this weekend to a river that only runs three times a year, i'm not going. i want to but there are things that i need to do, not want to do...have you ever noticed how the snow glows even in the shadows when it's copulating with the mountain side? i am waiting for the hidden beauty to find it's way out of me, or don't i classify as part of everything?

and for present thoughts on the past the song is katie come true by son, Ambulance. now there is some hidden beauty
