Downtown Green Lake, on a sleepy Wednesday last week. Sorry about the Hummer, kinda ruins the small town vibe, I know. || #exploremore #GreenLakation #wanderlust #letsgosomewhere #greenlake #wisconsin #discoverwisconsin @heidelhouse (at Green Lake, WI)

Throwback to that time I got stuck around midnight in Red Feather, got rescued by a friendly group of semi-intoxicated backwoods folk and their backwoods dogs, and was rewarded with some of their homemade whiskey in a mason jar. Also, there was a good sunset. || #livefolk #liveaithentic #coloRADo #exploremore #latergram #seeforyourself #meetthemoment #rei1440project #letsgosomewhere #wanderlust

Scotts Bluff National Monument is fantastic. || I visited here alone, as the sun was going down, and it was incredible. Most places I go alone. It might be better with company, but that brings in all sorts of new complications. You've got questions of logistics and coordination, of motivation, of compatibility. And I think somehow, in all the time I've spent on trails, and behind the wheel, and asleep in hotels and campgrounds, I've actually grown to like it. People are amazing if you find good ones at a good time, and if the good ones you find think you're a good one at the same time, but mostly people are just problematic. So here's a picture of a bluff. Its only problematic if you fall off it, or if you're Hiram Scott and get abandoned by your fur trapping party and die on it, I suppose.

I've have this curse of seeing the good and the bad simultaneously in everything, and coming up with a (often premature, always developing) negative verdict. I know people who are able to blissfully ignore the bad, or who don't even think about things qualitatively at all; I envy those people. Because when you think about both sides, and you let each one honestly fight it out, the negative is usually more persuasive. And that's a little depressing. But things like sunsets - the only weighable quality they have is beauty. Some are more beautiful than others, sure, but they're all beautiful. You never walk away from a sunrise or a sunset depressed. || High Cliff State Park, Wisconsin, two nights ago.

Jeep + Judson Tower (fantastically creepy, very rectangular water tower at Green Lake Conference Center, built 1908). This is the second time I've driven to it; this time I took roads though instead of getting lost and driving down a windy golf course path in a full-size pickup. || #letsgosomewhere #exploremore #wanderlust #jeep #wisconsin #travelwisconsin #visitwisconsin #greenlakewi (at Green Lake, WI)

Green Lake sunsets are pretty awesome. Amazing little three-day escape. Only left to shoot home to IL to go to another Wisco lake tomorrow. || #exploremore #greenlake #travelwisconsin #wanderwisconsin #letsgosomewhere #rei1440project #lakelife #sunset (at Green Lake Wisconsin)
