Visiting Tor House and Hawk Tower, home of Robinson Jeffers and his wife Una, was an amazing experience yesterday. I still can’t believe I was there, got to sit at his writing desk and climb to the top of Hawk Tower (second picture is the view of the Pacific from the top).

Holy crap what a day – and it’s still not over. The Indianapolis to Dallas flight was delayed by two hours.
