In 2003 I drove from Boston, in the north-eastern corner of the US, to LA, in
the south-west, to attend and speak at the national animal rights conference
there. It took five days and cost under USD 150. I slept in the car (no
air-conditioning), eating canned and Chinese restaurant food. I did the same
thing in reverse about a year previously in temperatures up to 43 C being
tortured by right wing radio stations across the midwestern Bible Belt - it's
not fun. Good thing I'm Australian and a spiritual master of patience and pain
:)
I discovered many remote and
beautiful valleys as I drove through the mountains and back country of
south-western Colorado. Box Canyon was hidden deep inside one of them.
