After I Get Beaten to Death By Homophobes With a Crowbar, Scatter My Ashes on Y Mountain

FoxyJ and I watched Brokeback Mountain tonight and it made me feel, of all things, homesick for Utah. I wish I knew how to quit you, Rocky Mountains.

  1. Try spending 5 years, 3 months, 11 days, and 21 hours in the mid-west. I could not believe how much I missed the mountains!!!

  3. One year away from my Cascades and I'm twitching...ah well, I'll see them soon enough! Figures I miss the record-breaking rain month, though. I am actually disappointed at not having the chance to slog through the Burke muck on my bike. I sort of like the mud-splattered calves look.

  4. Hey, a football game once made me homesick for Utah, which was just wrong, and left me with no choice but to steal the enjoyment of everyone around me.

  6. When I went to BYU as a new convert from the East in the fall of 1966, I couldn't get over the feeling of some unidentified "presence". It felt like someone was watching me, looking over my shoulder, following me. I finally realized it was the mountains.
