No, I'm safely back in Lincoln.  I might be diffident, but I'm not that
technologically enabled, and I probably wouldn't be feeling so poetic about
the experience if I were still there.  With the sun near the horizon

just climbed another slope, flipped over the top of a ridge, and fell out
almost in front of my truck.
