i was headed to hike segment 28 of the colorado trail. this was mid-april of this year, 2026. i walk/hike the 5 or so miles to the trailhead before i actually start the trail. miles are miles, so why not? plus, i have no car. i like it that way.
i have grown to detest private motor vehicles. a discussion for another day.
a skate park is on the way. i saw this and memories of randy and i flashed through my head. we didn’t have a skate park. we had bicycles. a road. woods.
the dichotomy of these two, who i can only assume are brothers, just blinkered me for a moment. remembrances rushed my conscious; a flash flood of past images locked away.
amazing how certain scenes cause an avalanche of memories. a million visualizations cascading through the mind in the blink of an eye.
times gone.
bye.
