NZ and OZ: Beyond any deserts
Wandering around New Zealand and southeastern Australia for a couple of months. Irrelevant quotation follows ... "Sometimes, when I compare myself with other men, it seems as if I were more favored by the gods than they, beyond any deserts that I am conscious of ... I am no more lonely than the loon in the pond that laughs so loud, or than Walden Pond itself ... I am no more lonely than a single mullein or dandelion in a pasture, or a bean leaf, or sorrel, or a horse-fly, or a bumblebee. I am no more lonely than the Mill Brook, or a weathercock, or the north star, or the south wind, or an April shower, or a January thaw, or the first spider in a new house." -- Henry David Thoreau, Solitude, Walden
