Some trips are not so much about the destination but about the journeyitself, and still, some journeys don't go quite to plan. Its always a good idea to have a plan "B" or a plan "C" and even a plan "D" just in case.
Those journeys are more about the people and camaraderie they share, combine that with good weather ( tho a little hazy from fires ) nice temps and no bugs and the destination naturally takes a back-seat, not all who wander are lost and today we were such a group, 13 went out and 13 came back and we were all the better for it.
