moving day, um, months, many moving months

so, hello. this is the last post on this blog. you can find me here, soon. it's been six months on the road. total renewal. so much so that this blog has to go so that i can start over. i went from winter to spring to summer to winter to spring to winter to spring to spring to summer. seriously. can you guess any of the places i've been? they are basically in order. to put it mildly, i've been nearly everywhere. more places than i have photos of because life was often too immediate for photography. there were bats coming out from under bridges, kevas and pinion pine smoke, wildfires and moose, many feet of snow and deserts in spring, saguaros and redwoods, retreats and lots of campsites, there are now 20,000 new miles on my car and i'm pretty sure there was at least one close encounter of the third kind. mostly i was alone except when i was not, and i spent two months without my dogs, really really really alone. and i did remember what i'd forgotten. and now i've found a home, i just don't have a house yet. infinite gratitude to all those old and new friends who've conveniently left town just when i needed a new place to stay. and welcome to los angeles.
