Day 495 - 1st August 2008

This first day of August interpreted the term 'head in the clouds' in a more literal sense than usual. At one point, I was so high (or the clouds were so low) that I managed to park so that if I crouched, there was a layer of cloud just above me, acting as a roof.

Then I went higher; ironically when you're actually in a cloud it's rather dull, everything just turns to fog and you get really wet. As I type right now, more mist is descending into the valley, it'll probably all be gone by tomorrow.

Anyway, at the top of the mountain I saw this Toyota 4x4 which at the time seemed cool, and since I couldn't see anything else I took a picture. Then I realised, it really is cool, you see, the truth is, I got to the top of the hill in about twenty minutes, nearly breaking the car on crap roads. This guy could have floored it and been there in five. Judging by the missing fog lamp and the flat tyre - he probably did.

Finally found some internet access today - it's been a while since I last went online, and although I'm supposed to say how Godly it felt without it, going back online was like taking a breath of fresh air - at last something aside from the four TV channels we get here!
