The board is so quiet. Everyone must be out of town today...
I was out of town, too. I arrived home flying the red-eye out of Los Angeles, and after unpacking, went to sleep for an hour or so. I had to get up and buy some food, so I loaded the washer and completed my chores. Turned on the baseball game and stretched out for another nap. I have a full week of work facing me, so by tomorrow morning I hope to be bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.
The triple-whammy of extreme heat, California wildfires and COVID-related shutdowns made the trip dicey at times, but I credit the trip leaders for being able to adjust and keep things moving. I shot something like 235 photographs in Sequoia, Kings Canyon, Yosemite and Death Valley National Parks. All of California's national forests were closed the day before I left, but fortunately, we weren't prevented from driving through a few. COVID also caused the closure of visitor centers and lack of help shut down restaurants and facilities, but we soldiered on.
My goal was to see Death Valley, so another item crossed off my bucket list.
But a week without playing guitar. I sat down earlier and picked up my Taylor (it needed tuning) and smiled for about thirty minutes. It made me feel good to be back.
Where is everyone?
