[@lichenthug]

Listening to this, brooding atop the southwestern hills of Oregon. Among the yellow grass and under the lodgepoles, where whooping and knocking of a mythical legend echoes through the holler. The ferns run dense through the thicket, as the high grass through these high hills. Twilight in 2 hours time, the crickets sound their backwoods symphony, amidst the golden sea of grass and sun. The wind rides as gently as the condor over my ridge as I write. All things flow, and so too will the creek once the land of eternal rains harken again it's namesake.

[@Permskiykrai]

Tbh the second part with John was even more memorable for me because of the travelling around the empty and beautiful landscapes. That's why I started to really appreciate even the little things that happen to me while travelling. I found out about so much simple yet interesting things to do, like fishing or hunting the legendary beasts or just sitting and looking at the dawn. Sometimes I came to a house in the very west of west-elizabeth to look at the lake. I also really enjoyed a quest with the writer that Dutch admired, I read through all his books for like 3 times. They made me think about nature and the way of life I want. I know that this isn't a serious philosophy book but damn. I sometimes dream about going to some remote place to live in my own house by lake now
