Growing older, I grow into the Tao
I make my home in southern mountains
and go there on a whim to wander alone.
But even in all this spendor, things remain empty.
I climb to the headwaters of the river
where clouds rise up from emptiness.
If I chance to meet another hermit in the woods,
we talk and laugh and never even think of home.

I took a trip today up to my dredge just to check on it it's been 3 weeks since I last got up. It's a nice hike takes about 30 minutes and I was all alone.

But even in all this spendor, things remain empty

Thats kinda how i felt today no one to share it with, I talked to God thankful I am well enough today to make the trip been sick for the last week with a few different things, my knee is well today wore a brace feels fine, dredge and all my stuff safe but someones been there saw 1 set of foot tracks but nothing was touched so thats good.

Felt good to get out water sounded nice I did a little panning no dredging not ready for that yet and the rivers still running to high so another week or 2 I will get back in the water and find gold, I asked myself why today, why put myself through all of this. It's adventure it's even danger at times its a little about the allusive gold dust too but more for something inside of me that needs to breathe and feel free and to fight even, I fight nature and I fight my own endurance, I fight mechanics all the time with my dredge LOL.
