I've decided to take a sabbatical. From my sabbatical. I've felt the urge for some time now to simplify my life. And what could be more simple than strapping on a backpack and walking? So that's what I'm going to do. I've refined most of my life down to about 15 pounds of essentials, threw them in a backpack, and I am heading out. The tentative goal is to walk from Mexico to Canada along the Pacific Coast Trail beginning sometime in April. Who knows if I will complete it. I suppose that's not the goal. I plan on walking, wherever it takes me. If I make it to Canada, I'll be glad. If I don't, I'm sure I'll end up somewhere even better. It will be a long journey. It will last a long time. Who knows when I will return. Until then, safe travels.
