The Duffel Bag: May 2012

Where the spirit leads the feet will follow.

Down distant paths for unmapped miles.

Heads forget but hearts remember:

The art of living knows no bounds.

"The best journeys answer questions that in the beginning you didn't even think to ask." - Jeff Johnson, 180 Degrees South

"The best way out is always through" - Robert Frost

"The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way". - Marcus Aurelius

* Pomo Canyon/Red Hill loop

Marcie and I hiked today with the North Bay Hikes group on a 6 mile loop starting at Shell Beach on Highway 1. From Shell Beach, we took the trail to Pomo Canyon where we stopped for lunch. We returned via the Red Hill trail up and over Red Hill, then continuing back to Shell Beach.

32 North Bay Hikers showed up for the hike.
