The rain'll let up, they said. It'll be gone by noon, they said.
#Oh well it feels like home#Did i ever tell about the time i discovered the magic of wool exercise clothes?#They are quite expensive but grandma bought me some when sanjeev and i were going hiking every weekend in washington#Anyway one spring sanjeev and i got a little to hasty in hiking up my favorite mountain#and it started snowing when we were halfway up#And we hit the snow line and realized it was going to be a challenge coming back#because snow was covering the trail hahahahaha what idiots#And when we reached the top and took our break#Covered in melting snow btw#We were debating which trail to take back#I knew of one that had diamonds but it was also STEEP like steep steep like mt rainier steep and that didnt sound like a good idea in snow#So we went back the way we came#And luckily since ive been hiking this mountain since i was 14#even when the snow was covering the trail i still instinctively knew which way in general was the way we were supposed to go#But let me tell you every time we hit one of my recognizable landmarks like a favorite tree of mine or a favorite rock#I was like THANK GOD i will never make this mistake again i have learned my lesson no trying to hike before the season starts#Anyway my point is when it stopped snowing and we were wet and cold i took off my top layer stuffed it in my bag#And the wool layer underneath dried SO FAST it was crazy#By the time we reached the bottom we were both warm and dry and cozy#Jrnlsht
