"Every production of an artist should be an adventure of his soul" - W Somerset Maugham

Day 7 - Tuesday

'Striking distance' to Carmel looks more like another 7.5-8 hrs driving. But five hrs sleep works just fine and I use the morning to get caught up in my thinking about this adventure. I consider it the "Know Thyself" Tour; as an actor, I trained intensely and specifically for a lotta years to learn craft as well as to watch other fine actors work. As a visual artist - while I have no intent to return to academia - it is the first of my hope to assure myself a solid experience in the pursuit of craft and technique and inspiration.  "You can't wait for inspiration, you have to go after it with a club" - Jack London

So I organize for a bit and hit the road. Through Reno and onward across the California line, around Tahoe, through Sacramento and  finally, once again after dark, I arrive at first landmark destination, Carmel-by-the-Sea and my idyllic campground. Too dark to really unpack everything tonight, but get a good start in setting up camp and will begin the exploration tomorrow. And that is all I have to say to you at this time :)
