A post-natural landscape

Finishing up breakfast food. Extra soup can. Stuffing the tent. Goodbye Cougar Canyon. The long trek back. Shoulders feel tight. Sweating unbearable. Glad to change clothes at the van. "Warning". Accidental orange. Back to Borrego Springs. Splitting a chicken with Amanda. Briefly connected to the world again. Off to the Salton Sea. The smell of rotting fish and birds. Barnacles everywhere. Salt everywhere. Questionable water. 3 feathers. Found DVD. Val Kilmer. Desiccated houses. Other non-locals. Driving to the other side. Tent by the lake. Shower at long last. Sunset red. No boats. Group curry. Cream of coconut. Coconut the cat. Another fire pit. Early night. Trains all the time.
