Back at It

Haven't blogged in a while about anything, but so much has been happening. I've been on big grand adventures that have taken me far away from California, but now I'm back living in Santa Cruz getting ready to get back into my studies here.

It's been a little over a week since I moved to Santa Cruz, and already there have been some great little adventures. I've made some new friends, and am sure to make more. Blogging seems to be a great way to share even part of my experience here with anyone who is interested or would just has some time to kill. Anyways.




These are all from a hike we took out to Goat Rock, a great big rock overlooking the beautiful valley you see up there. We climbed all over this rock and found a big cave, big enough for all 6 feet 2 inches of me to stand upright inside. We spent some time there, climbed around, and soaked in the good views.







These here are from a place called the Land of the Medicine Buddha. Its right here in Santa Cruz, about a 10 minute drive, and it was pretty dang cool. We took a 6 mile hike through the "Enchanted Forest", read Buddhist verses, and enjoyed the mysticism and serenity of the place.






We had to go to the coast. We tromped around Wilder State Park the other day, found another cave to explore, this so damp inside the ceiling was dripping like rain and the ferns reached down towards you. By the time we got to the back of it, we had to touch the back wall you see, we couldn't even see our own feet.



That's all just in the last week of living here. I'm so excited for all the adventures that have yet to happen. I'll be sure to share everything I can from this amazing time in my life, because...well because it makes me feel good I suppose. And it makes me feel good to keep my loved ones updated on my scene because I hardly get to describe to it them in person these days.

Were going to Big Basin Redwood State Park today for a 5 to 6 mile hike, I'll bring my camera and be sure to post about it on here. Have a great day. Go out on a hike somewhere, you won't regret it. Even if it's around the corner, there's adventures to be had everywhere.
