[at-l] "Funny how things seem insignificant at the time."

Felix just said that.

And that's the tail of the Trail, ain't it?  How can those scruffy little 
encounters and incidents mean so much they take your breath away, looking 
back?

Yeh -- there was a major relo over Pond Mtn.  God did it.  I think the late 
sobos had bridges across Laurel Fork.  I got to ford.  Thot I was pretty 
bold until I watched a whole class of 6th graders do it -- faster -- better 
-- then they outhiked me.  It wasn't Playboy when I got to that shelter.  
But I remember there were magazines there.  Wonder why there are and how 
come nobody burns 'em for firestarter.  The blue blaze to the falls is 
superior footing.
