sigh....30

well...it's offical. i'm now 30. i spent the day climbing up a mountain in Muir Woods up by San Francisco. it was the most magical, most beautiful place i've ever been. i kept waiting for fairies to fly by and grant me birthday kisses, but i think they were too shy to come out. the trees were massively tall and so old. the air was so clean and fresh, you truly felt alive and well, well.....once you caught your breath from all the climbing that is. so thank you muir woods, you helped turning 30 into a not too shabby experience.
