There’s a land where the mountains are nameless,
And the rivers all run God knows where;
There are lives that are erring and aimless,
And deaths that just hang by a hair;
There are hardships that nobody reckons;
There are valleys unpeopled and still;
There’s a land — oh, it beckons and beckons,
And I want to go back — and I will.
-Robert Service, from Spell of the Yukon
Well Faithful...

Wishing I could join in from afar...
Chris, there is no way for me to express my extreme jealousy. Here I am, sitting in an office cubicle in a city, looking at your pictures of absolutely sublime scenery (great photography by the way...feels like I'm actually sitting there in those mountains!) and feeling more determined than ever to set off on a journey of my own. What amazing adventures! You're driving to California, eh? Does this mean you're planning to swing through a certain notorious city in the southern end of Nevada to visit a friend? ~Alana
