that long afternoon we spent wandering through the rainforests on the olympic penninsula, and we met the family with small kids and you explained to them how your gps worked while i patted their dog. and we pitched a tent at the campground near sol duc falls and went to sleep lulled by the white noise of the burbling river.

i woke up first and made hot chocolate for both of us by the time you woke up. that was some damned fine hot chocolate.
