Everyone was super sweet while I was explaining why I had to leave, but I don't know if I trust that there won't be any hard feelings. I need some space from the whole experience, but once I've had that I don't know how many of them I'll want to keep in touch with, or if I'll write this year's burn off as a failed experiment and turn my back on everything associated with it.

Maybe I'm dwelling too much on the negatives. I did have at least one wonderful adventure each day (except yesterday, which was all working and packing), and I remembered a journal so I can go back and remind myself of those. Somewhere in my stuff is a notebook with phone numbers and other contact information. That'll turn up tomorrow as I start to climb Laundry Mountain. Hopefully following up on that will keep the positive memories more fresh.
