I just realized that the first full day of the Alaska trip was exactly one year ago today. At this very moment last year I was spending the first night of the trip in the Subaru just south of Redwood National Park (sleeping peacefully, unlike tonight). I woke up that day and went for a run through a Redwood Grove that was palpably peaceful, if such a phrase can be used to describe a place where you can’t help but feel anything other than content and relaxed. It’s a bit odd how the trip doesn’t feel like it was that long ago, but at the same time it feels like a lifetime ago that I was working for Accenture.
