Volks,

My friend Rob stated ""ignorance has taken me to some truly amazing places."

IMHO ... the value of ignorance is highly underrated.

Knowing what I know now, I'd probably never start out on a 2 yr 60k driveabout, let 

alone stumble upon incredible remote places that I had no business finding alone.

Any then I would be without the memories of a truly incredible adventure and 

wouldn't know most of you blissfully adventurous "ignorant people" :)

Thank Goodness that's not the case.

The one time I got a little nervous was a road Larry Chase told me about

near Big Sur. It was largely composed of rock and mud towards the top,

and I was getting tired and it was getting dark. I would have turned

around, but the road was too narrow to even do that. So I slowly and

carefully pushed on, and made it to one of the best camping spots I've

seen.
