2nd warm-up sesh out @ canoes this morning ... not quite as good as yesterday + a few more dangerous kooks but plenty cute boys - still good fun!

amazing to make the pacific passage, the transition from living in the middle of a continent to living in the middle of the ocean ... just like when i flew out this spring, i crossed from land to sea over san francisco: last time at a relatively low altitude right over the city w/ an incredible full color view of golden gate park and the big red bridge; this time impossibly high and to the north, with a view like the space shuttle, of the sacramento river emptying into the bay, marin, the lighthouse on the tip of point reyes, the east bay w/ thin fog in the berkeley hills and, connected by wire-thin bridges and looking like the master computer chip in the center of an endless organic circuit board, the city. it is bio-electro-magnetic to me that place, + i could feel it connecting to my nervous system like a wireless signal, lighting up my cells, realigning my molecules, drawing me back.
