woke up this morning and went for a lovely walk through the mountains with my dad and 2 of the 3 dogs.
the sun was shining, the sky was blue, the biting flies were out in full force...
i love nature.
but not as much as i love my dog.
i was speaking with a friend this afternoon and realized that there are very few things/people in the world that i love as much as i love my dog.
don't hate me.
i am obviously aware of how that sounds.
and i have to stand by it.
truth is, i would most likely sacrifice a person before i would sacrifice my dog elliott.
(these are the things you start to think about way up here in the mountains, so far from civilization, so far from things like tv, billboards and the church to keep me in check. and if you read this last sentence and found yourself nodding your head emphatically while thinking "yes, exactly," please do me a favor and never read my blog again.)
tomorrow is my final day in the wilderness.
we then return to the major urban center of schenectady, new york.
not to be confused with new york, new york, although my father informs me of the recent construction of modern architectural lofts on what used to be my hometown's "best street to buy crack." (Zagats 2007)
i will leave you with this:
