Holy shit, it’s nuts how many abandoned towns/roads/kayaks/cities/empires/dragons are in those pines. Glad you got tacos out of it, they sound great.

I haven't even been to half of them. It's like it was all inhabited at one point or another. And they were great tacos. Next time (maybe this weekend) I'll finally go to the Lower Bank Tavern, a piney bar. There's a seafood truck called LB's Bait Box, but they're closed until summer.

LB’s Bait Box and the Lower Bank Tavern? Based on name alone those sound great (or like a very confusing band name). Looking forward to reading about them.

Next time make a video of yourself whirling your grappling hook in preparation for your ascent.

That was funny. As soon as you said turnpike, I did indeed think of a large roadway like 95. =D

You're such a good sport about it. There are no mountains for me to climb down here.
