July post soon
Hey blog readers, I didn’t forget about putting together an essay this month…summer’s just a bit crazy with camping, projects, odd jobs, taking kids all over the place, running races, etc. Hardly a routine for writing! But I am finishing up a piece that has to do with water–specifically the flow of water. I had the ideas “percolating in my headwaters” for a while, and they were solidified when Carrie & I had to remove our boots to cross a confluence of three streams on a backpacking trip recently. At the base of an off-trail drainage we finished our descent by forging the cold, fresh merging of several streams into upper Redfish Lake Creek, preparing to hike up a steep bench to a lake that also fed this same creek. This reminded me of a number of aspects of my July writing; you’ll know what I mean when you read it. Come back, as I’ll post it tonight or tomorrow.
