In his novel, “Looking for Alaska”, John Green writes of “seeking The Great Perhaps”. Sitting on an airplane, flying home, I find myself seeking words to describe my travels…and those are the ones that seem most fitting. Maybe the very nature of travel lends itself to the search…the exploration, the opportunity for new experiences, the unfolding of worlds never before seen. Yet there are those other “Great Perhaps” that come along with travel - or at least my travel - those inside explorations, however dangerous, also seeking an unfolding of something new, of something to take back. I’d like to think I am always in search of The Great Perhaps…but travel sets a ripe stage.

I am home now. I am tired and worn from my explorations. I am breaking from chickadventure routine in the coming posts…posting not only hike information but various other travel experiences from my journals (and pictures) that I kept during the trip. Although, it’ll take me some time to get things organized…and I need some sleep.
