Hike



We know only that our entire existence is forced into new paths and disrupted, that new circumstances, new joys and new sorrows await us, and that the unknown has its uncanny attractions, alluring and at the same time anguishing.
~ Heinrich Heine

So, you might think that if you wanted to find a spot to make a pinky swear with someone that hiking up the trail in this photo would be a good place to go and do that. It's near the ocean and kind of secluded - except for the hikers who might walk by.
The problem, though, might - theoretically - come when you are ready to come back down the hill. If it gets dark and the tide comes in, you might end up coming down the deceptive hill (much steeper than it looks) kind of sliding on your butt.
Some pinky swears are worth it, though. And it can make for an interesting story about how you almost died.
