REFLECTION

As I was on some lonely mountain road in the Northeast Kingdom this am on a 50 minute run, random thougths began entering my head.

First and foremost------

For all of you undergoing a mid-life crisis, have just gotten dumped by a significant other, fired from your dream job, or just want to enjoy some R&R and want some away/quiet time, you are more than welcome to stay at my house in Vermont anytime. Its in God's country away from yuppies, modern technology, noise and all other evils associated with modern-urban living. Its a runner's paradise. You can safely heal and run and look at trees and smell the earth. Its raw and natural and clean. You actually have to hike to some remote library hidden away in a small country town to find internet service(where I am now). You can either hike or run back to your living quarters where on the way, you can stop at the country store and buy some beer and food.

Yesterday, in the early eve I went on a 60 minute run in the woods with only my red shorts and some sneakers. I could only see the ground in front of me and heard all kinds of noises from the surrounding trees as I scampered about. There were no cars, no lights or signs of humanity to guide or protect me. I could have been eaten by a bear or attacked by an owl, etc.

I may never leave.

On a side note,

Peter, that video you produced is great! You have some talent. You and Klim should partner up and start a running/video/movie business.

peace out
