gone hiking, be back soon

i had this great plan that i would write a bunch of blog postings and have them post once a day while i am gone on the inca trail.  sadly, i didn´t get my act together on that one.  tomorrow morning i leave on a 4 day trek to machu picchu, so you won´t be hearing from my until we get back sunday.  assuming we don´t pass out as soon as we get back.  oh my beloved blog readers, how will you survive without me?
