Bicyclandes: October 2008
http://bicyclandes.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
One morning, the blinding glare of the glaciated peaks spoke to us in tantalizing tongues, beckoning us to place where its whispers might be heard. The Bakers, a family with altruistic intentions of spreading love osmotically, proposed a potato planting outing that would unsuspectingly include a game of Lightning Tag. Had we known, we may not have signed up. Posted by Brent Sturlaugson. The Lone Road, Peru. Sedation. Cattle, on the other hand, are as empty as their eyes appear. The following day presente...

When the snowplow broke down, so did I. Its vice was a fallen tree. Soon, the survivalist in me kicked in. Laughing wasn´t going to build a roof over. My head, and camping was out of the question, given the compounded cold induced by the treacherous pattern of a hovering phase change. But with nothing open in the off-season, where was I supposed to find shelter in the middle of a national park? Fresh footsteps leading through a gate left slightly ajar was my ticket.

Bicyclandes: Aquatic Bodies, Argentina
http://bicyclandes.blogspot.com/2009/05/aquatic-bodies-argentina.html
Aquatic Bodies, Argentina. Airbound aggregate that normally limited visibility in the early. Still liquid, the lakes hovered on the brink of freezing. These aquatic bodies glowed cerulean in the acutely angular light - sparkling irises of pristine composition backdropped by brilliant white summits and. Vibrant fall foliage. In between the imperceptible gusts that softly rustled the canopy, the scene became doubly magnificent in the undisturbed surfaces. Strength, despite the cold. Expressions of awe ...

Faint whispers of Inca processions still ooze from between the minute creases that lock the stone. Despite it´s brutish past, Cuzco now manages it´s many facets responsibly and beautifully, creating a quaint community of diversity. While contemplating it, as always, through reckless delineation in. Each street outdoes the last by contorting perspective into a bent reality where geometry is crumpled into a far more intricate complexity. The labyrinth of slotted streets winds incomprehensibly through a...

Freeway camping, as a matter of fact, is exactly as miserable as it sounds. Speaking of sounds,. Posted by Brent Sturlaugson. Fruit salad filled the ditches after an overloaded produce truck smashed into an overpass at screaming velocity, sending vitaminal schrapnel hurling through the air like a SaladShooter from Tool Time.
