letting your conscience be your guide
i guess you're wondering where i'm going with all this? me too. i never planned on coming here. the grand canyon. never even crossed my mind until i talked to cindy thanksgiving morning while i was still in denver, co.
"hey, i've been meaning to ask you if there's any places you wanted me to check out while on the road?" "mmm?..." she thinks it over... for a millisecond, "grand canyon!" thinking she's being a little ridiculous. "no, no, i'm not going to the grand canyon? i don't think my car would like that very much?" "fine... why did you ask me anyway?" silence. "anywhere else?" "no, that's it..."
i didn't think about our conversation again until a couple days ago in albuquerque,nm. looking at my map. retracing my steps. plotting my future course. maybe, cindy was onto something?... i was chased south, out of colorado, because of the weather. into new mexico. don't want go any further south. i'll move west thru arizona. into flagstaff. you know? the grand canyon is right there. just an hour, or so, north of flagstaff. doesn't seem so ridiculous to go there after all...
and so that's what's brought me here today. on my way to the grand canyon. listening to the wise owl that is cindy. letting my conscience by my guide.
and that's where i was going with all this. i think?

Just wanted to say that I was the one to tell you that the Grand Canyon is near Flagstaff. Oh, and are David, Scott, and Jess the only ones you went to dinner with in Sept.? Just wondering. Love you too.
