8/6/06 Its way too dark to write this but I must say, if I was in heaven last night tonight I've found Nirvana. What a fantastic day and what a sweet place I've found to lay me down.
I left my camp on the shores of Cameron Lake quite late only to find a mile down the road the majestic Cathedral Grove.
Tons of huge old growth trees with heavey curtains of emerald green draped luxeriously over their ancient boughs.
I must've spent an hour there snapping way too many picturess. It was rather crowded though so I had to rally.
Further on, as the heat of the day caught up to me I came across the beach at Sproat Lake. It too was rather populated but very cold, refreshing, relaxing, rejuvinating. I can't believe how clean the waters are around here. I swam and drank and lounged around in the sun. Splendid.
I finished off the day with one of those searches for a ssuitable campsite that just draws on and on. However tonight I think I found the champ.
At the base of a mountain that rises forever, on rocks sculpted by thousands of years of pounding water, by the lulliby of the roaring river, pure and blue I've found the place to lay me down.
Beans are almost ready. Eat good and then to bed. Have a magnificent night. I will tell all in the morning. Peace.
8/7/06 Cold Morning. Last night the aura of the moon dimmed the stars in the eastern quadrant of the firmament. I sat up eagerly awaiting her arrival, waiting to see her face reflected in the river. But she drew a shroud of mist about her. Itss been overcast since. Everything is damp and dewey. And cold. I want to go back to bed. Its still rather early.
