That's very handy for the compleat idiot.  But I can find my way up any Sierra
or Inyo peak, once I sober up.  Well there are a couple of peaks I might have
some trouble with.  4th class.  Not to do alone.  Now, out in the Arizona
desert, I might be in more trouble.  But my wife and Katya and I handled
ourselves very well the last time.  Oh, yes.

When my first marriage was dissolving, there was this botanist woman, Suzy, who
took my ignorant ass to the Panamints and yelled "penstemon" at every fucking
flower, but of course they were all penstemons.  Her kids put a stop to it all
as they wanted her back with her previous lover.  She was 11 years older than I
but could sure kick my butt, even though I was running and cycling.  She drank a
6-pack a day so she wouldn't waste away.  What a metabolism.
