One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

On my bike tour down the coast I found a place on the Northern California shore where there were two climbable rock structures in the ocean. I climbed to the top just as the sun was setting and the waves hit the rocks just high enough to spray my feet. I felt like I was sitting in the middle of the Ocean.

Running through the rain and heat lighting at a bluegrass festival in Stanley, Idaho watching the lightning hit behind the Sawtooth Mountains.
