Just listened to The Dirtbag Diaries, which I learned about on The Cleanest Line. This is something you’ll enjoy.

It reminded me of a silly adventure of my own I embarked on the summer after high school when a friend and I floated the Kern River from Heart Park to CSUB through the metropolis of Bakersfield, CA on semi inflated sno-tubes. It involved a bit of walking around dams and sections too low to float, sometimes barefoot sometimes with one sandal because Jerry forgot his.

What we saw was a whole different Bako. Not any better though.

    Speaking of places that suck…I just got back from a week in beautiful downtown Lincoln, Neb., home of bad food, portly citizens, and not a hell of a lot else. Made me right glad to get back to springtime in the Rockies.
