i’m experiencing a vague feeling of contentment. its friday, the sun’s out, radio paradise is spinning, coffee’s kicking in, the philadelphia eagles are playing on sunday and i’m planning my saturday morning long hike. honestly, i have stopped giving a fuck about traveling to distant places for a vacation ever since i realized my happiest moments have been spent hiking our myriad and many local trails with my wife and dog. south-east pennsylvania is truly an outdoorsmans paradise. like the bumper sticker on my car says: today’s schedule, coffee, hike, beer.
