You will notice that it lacks definiteness; that it lacks purpose; that it lacks coherence; that it lacks a subject to talk about; that it is loose and wabbly; that it wanders around; that it loses itself early and does not find itself any more. --Mark Twain

Awesome, when I lived in Bezerkely years ago, my wife and I would head to hills, Mt. Diablo or the Pinnacles every weekend to hike around.
