Big Sur - Top Antique @ Deetjen's Big Sur Inn

Note to self:
You don't exist.

A few things that are real:

• These Redwoods dipping their roots in Castro Creek, reaching for the sun and not far short...
• Crows punctuating the wide blue sky above Cafe Kevah @ Nepenthe, sudden black dashes alighting to loiter near tables in search of food...
• Ladybugs thick upon The Tanbark Trail, so many uncountable millions that soon as the eye percieves their numbers covering the Redwood sorrell, the fallen trunks of trees, stalks and leaves of all the flora, it seems a single shiny set of red carapace wings is moving there among the wood...
• The jade pool swirling in sea foam @ Partington Cove...
• The gentle green fairie of Big Sur, even now growing up and under the eaves of Top Antique...
• The westering sun, touching a wind shaped Oak with fleeting gold...
• The light in my Sarah's eyes and Love above all.

But you already knew that!
