Valley of Desolation
I have a tendency to go on hikes with only my flip-flops - not even proper sandals. This hike was more steps than track, but in the end, the views (as always) was amazing. After spending some time in the

A Short Stay in Hell by Steven L. Peck | A Fermented Book Review
Sometimes you read a book and then it stays with you for months on end. I like to compare this fermentation. You do not write the review immediately; you let the work “ferment” in your mind for a while.
