[pct-l] It's all in the planning... for now

If only serendipity and synchronicity were the trailsigns along the path we travel throughout our  lives.
Beautiful words to live by, No Way!

I had great fun planning every mile, every day, every motel stop,  every Zero 
Day, every calorie... everything.
But I found to my great joy that serendipity and  synchronicity were more 
important than anything...that an unplanned  side-trip to Mammoth turned into a 
day as magical as the sunset on Forester  Pass... 
... that junk food served as 
well as organic stems and seeds and twigs when  needs they must... that a day 
here, a mile there was as unimportant as the world  I left behind...
 ... that I couldn't wait for the night to pass so I could see what would  happen on the morrow. 
Oh yeah, and that Momentum is everything.
