Day 46

Day 46
Tuesday April 15th
Bend over & pay the man fool, its Tax Day! Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's and shut the crap up!

Today after work I grabbed PonyBoy and we walked on up to Two Trees. I have never been up there and as my time in Ventura dwindles down I really wanted to make it a priority. The whole hillside area is private and completely surrounded in places by barbed wire and 8 foot fences. By some of the more popular trail heads they have strung and restrung fencing so many times it starts to look like Gitmo. It is such a joke that some old white man thinks he can keep all this land and everything for himself. There are some things that should not be owned and hidden by a single entity. Natural beauty should be shared by all those who appreciate it. Wake up pal! The people will not be denied! If George Washington Hayduke ever made it out to these parts he would have a fit at the audacity of it all.

Anyhow we found a whole in the fence and tucked on through. About an hour or so later we were relaxing under the big tree and scoping out the sunset. It was a nice walk indeed. After spending the last few days driving up and down the coast and stuck in an office I needed something quick to stretch my legs. This certainly did the trick.


PonyBoy taking a breather at the first bluff.


TWO TREES!


"Dude I got this man, just shut up and keep walking..."


Half way up, pausing for a quick peek at the sun set.


These poor trees, totally krunked up from years of wayward adolescents tagging & grinding their names for posterity's sake. If only they actually did something memorable they wouldn't need to carve up a majestic Ventura tree to be remembered by.


Enjoying the sun set, embraced by Mother Earth herself (yah I hugged a tree today, what do you expect!). Note to self; NEVER ever do this ummm "walk" again in flip flops you retard!


Good ole' Ventuckey, looking back down towards the Channel Islands.
