September.2020
our journey of movement across the country began
leaving our homes in Chatham, MA and traversing through the streets of Cambridge, Burlington, and the peaks and valleys of the Adirondack mountains
Badlands
Once a shallow sea
Soft eroded sediment
The edge of the world
Yellowstone
Movement of the tectonics
Created volcanic craters
Erected mountains
October.2020
Pacific Northwest
our journey continued to the northwest points
through mountains of fractured and faulted rock
circling glacial lakes
into the rain forest
down to rocky wooden beaches
Pinnacles
Sculpted by eruptions
Fields of tall spires
Soar amongst the condors
November.2020
from Lake Tahoe to Pinnacles down the coast
our journey moved through the protected regions of california
hugging waterways
enveloped by mountains and the vast pacific
Horseshoe Bend
Petrified sand into stone
Jagged slopes
Flowing, energetic waterways
Antelope Canyon
Where water runs through rocks
Creates spirals
And slot canyons
we drove inland
only to find more water ruins
‘where water runs through rocks’
exploring the eroded land
only accessible by kayak
Thanksgiving.2020
Cape Hatteras
Storms and seas
Always eroding
The low lying land
