spirit lake
this is the sunset i saw right before going into a 2+ hour long water session... (incase you're wondering, no, i could not formulate a coherent sentence after that)
On our way out of town, we stopped at the coffee shop to go online to find somewhere in Calistoga to sit in the mud. We found a couple of places, but decided we didn't want to spend $55 to sit in mud. Then, I picked up a copy of the North Bay Bohemian, and flipped directly to my favorite section, freewillastrology. Here's the horoscope for cancer for this week:
"Neuroscientists at Britain's Bristol University have concluded that playing in the dirt can make you feel really good. That's because most soil is crawling with species of bacteria that interact favorably with the human body, strengthening the immune system and stimulating the brain in the same way antidepressants do. The astrological omens suggest that you capitalize on this discovery, Cancerian. You can obtain great health benefits from playing in a sandbox, wrestling with a friend in the dirt, creating mud pies, or smearing clay on your face. In fact, having any kind of messy, down-to-earth fun is highly recommended. "
needless to say, we changed our minds.
