Luckily, they did. This is a frozen Lost Lake, with my first 2015 view of the Milky Way in the background. My arm’s been pretty sore for the past few days from the effort of getting up there, so I’ll probably lay low for a bit and continue to heal up.
Anyhow, the title is an allusion to several things: First, it’s kind of a play on the lake’s name. Second, it refers to the galactic center of the Milky Way, which has been hidden for the past few months. And third, it’s a comment on my own healing process and what has been required for me to (hopefully) live a life with a little less pain in my day-to-day activities.
Thanks for checking out the photo.
