Today's mantra from Jen:
May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds.
~Edward Abbey

C'est moi
I was raised Mormon, but now I'm a hippie Quaker living in the OC with my two teenage kids: CatGirl & GameBoy.
Twenty-six years ago I lost my right leg to bone cancer. Awhile ago I had an antibiotic-resistant infection in my lower left leg, and now I'm healing from surgery and feeling better every day.
I like gardening, making history, outrigger canoeing, trying new things, and my afternoon cup of tea.

i really want to like edward abbey. but i started desert solitaire and it didn't captivate me the way refuge or a sand county almanac or pilgrim at tinker's creek did.
beautiful picture, jana. thanks for sharing.
what you've got to remember about Edward Abbey is that he hates people. His only love is the land. And he thinks he's really the only person who can truly enjoy the land. That said, I really loved Desert Solitaire, but in a different way from Refuge
That's a beautiful blessing, I might have to steal it
So you want to host a disability blog carnival... cool! Email me to discuss dates and themes...turley2 AT earthlink DOT net will work.
i just have very little patience for misanthropes. i think it's one of the more narcissistic attitudes people indulge in.
but someday i'll give abbey another chance. because i love the land he loves, too.
