i'm sick. bonnaroo style. couldn't get out of bed all day. couldn't even drink a sip of water. thankfully i still have the medication they gave me for nausea when i was at bonnaroo, but my head is still POUNDING. fuck. i hate being sick. i wish i knew what caused these mysterious 48 hour debilitatating stomach/head things. part of me wonders if it's somehow related to the giardia i had when i was on my NOLS trip...

i remembered one of the things i wanted to talk about...the sky! the sky here is gorgeous. i can't believe how many times it makes my jaw drop with its beauty. clouds like cotton candy, golden edges on puffy clouds, a vibrant sun. just beautiful.

the other day i was out running at dusk gawking at the sky and the light filtering through the trees. i came upon a stream and 3 deer - one just a baby. soon another one joined them. i stood there silently, watching them until they became aware of my presence and ran away into the woods.

wow.

a gorgeous sky, seeing deer, and saying hi to the cows in the pasture on the way home. how cool is that? :)
