Camped at Glen Canyon, Hite UT, April 21, 2011
Just passing through
This is a one night stop as I make my way slowly east toward Blanding UT where I've made arrangements to pick up my mail next week. On the way I hope to find a camping spot or two along White Canyon and hike the canyon floor. There are ruins of Anasazi cave dwellings in the canyon walls I'd like to have a look at from below. I saw some of them from an overlook on a trip out here with a friend many years ago and they've peeked my curiosity. I think it would be neat to get an idea of what it might feel like to live in the canyon.

Our Past is Written Deep
We do not destroy this past of ours; it is indestructible. We carry it with us; its record is written deep in our lives. We only refuse to acknowledge it as our true past and try to make it an alien thing - something that did not happen to our real selves.... But this unremembered past endures.... Our buried past is mighty; the ghosts of our father and of the selves that we have been haunt our days and nights though we refuse to acknowledge their presence.
