Masters of Out of Body Mis-Perception
/I'm in Taos, fires on all four sides. The roads are open at the moment, but the forest locations are mostly closed. I guess I'll spend a few days here on the Rio Grande. I spent yesterday rafting and kayaking down the river. I seem to have come to a point where I have committed to not spending more than a few minutes thinking about where I might go next.
