The weather is getting warmer, and I believe further exploration of the Byng area for now might be blocked. My promised pictures of that place today turned out not to be, since I forgot my frigg’n memory card before heading into the woods. So instead I decided to go over to old, reliable Whitehead Crossing, but from The Way this time. Standard nomenclature needs to be reviewed for the area. Whitehead X-ing is so accessible because you can get to it through a number of ways (and so not just through The Way, har). It is definitely a center. Today I walked the Contemplation Loop quite a bit once more, but a slower pace than on previous visits. Will read more of my older Whitehead X-ing notes after finishing this post.
Hucka D.:
No pictures today? Aww.
bb:
Sorry. Stupid memory. *Mine*.
Hucka D.:
Contemplation Loop is connecting you to the woods, the wild. I heard you heard coyotes. Maybe wolves. But I think coyotes.
bb:
Yeah.
Hucka D.:
You just need to walk it as much as possible. Missouri is closed for now. Missouri will change into something else in a bit. Different name, I mean.
bb:
It’s an amazing ridge. And a path that I could not have predicted up that ridge beginning at the very start of the Lion’s Roar/Kansas path. Crazy.
Hucka D.:
That is Missouri, leading to Kentucky. You should study that state[ again].
bb:
Apologies once more about the pictures.
Hucka D.:
Soon it will open up. Lion’s Roar and Kansas too.
bb:
Who lived in Missouri?
Hucka D.:
*You*.
bb:
Hmmm… how about toy avatars. For that place and also Lion’s Roar/Kansas.
Hucka D.:
That beginning of the path, presently guarded by a greenish mushroom, is the gateway to the future. Missouri future. Through it you can gain quicker access to Kentucky and beyond. Diagonal. This formerly hidden trail will lead you further than ever before. Future.
bb:
Thank you.
