Trust the Road

A few years ago I was finishing a solo hike in Tahoe when I met some hikers who needed a ride to town.  They were from Argentina.  Score!  I love talking to people from other countries, especially when they're in my own backyard....sorta.

They told me about Patagonia, a great place to hike.  Friends had just come back from a trip there and flashing back to the beautiful photos they shared, the seed was firmly planted. Patagonia just moved up to #1 on my list of places to visit.

So in two weeks, here I go.  Solo.  I have a plan but I have no idea how it all will evolve. And, thus, it was so appropriate that I found this sign at a brew/bike pub in Fairfax, Ca.

Trust.
