Rocky Mountain High

At the summit of Mt. Bierstadt, August 2011

I’ve realized something on the eve of going back to my native Colorado. It’s best if you listen to this song while you read this post.

Especially after the last election, the tragedy of the shooting in Aurora, and the massive wildfires that tore through my state while I watched from a safe distance in Korea…

I’m not patriotic. I’m state-riotic.

In one day, I will touch the soil of my beloved Colorado. I simply can’t wait.

September 2011.
