Trip to Mt. Piños
Sunday August 21, 2005
We made it up and out by 8 am to go to Lebec to meet a woman Faol had met online at a lifestyle website. We drove to the Curious Bear Café to hook up with her. It was at an interesting place, the Pine Mountain Club. They were incredibly slow and when it did arrive the food was lukewarm but very tasty. The woman we came to meet was very nice and we had a good time. We stopped at another shop and looked at jewelry before all climbing into the rental and driving to Mt. Pinos near by. We parked and started up the trail towards the top. I took pictures of Joyful and Faol climbing a rock outcropping with watersiren sitting at the base. After a bit she was having some difficulty with breathing the thinner air so I walked down with her. Joyful and Faol went on up to the summit but we ended up waiting for them for 2 hours with no water. It was not a good experience and I was very upset. It was too much like the incident at the party for me and those feelings got triggered again.
When they finally got back we went to the Screaming Squirrel for iced tea. We took some time to chat then said goodbye. In the car I was too depressed and upset to discuss it what had happened so just tried to sleep as we drove home.
We watched a little TV, while Faol talked to various women on the phone.
I went to bed. I couldn’t sleep so came back down to brush my teeth
and do my evening routine. For a few moments I sat on the sofa by Faol and
cried a little then went back to bed.
