HAPPY PLACE

Hey look. I'm happy and on Mudeungsan.

I'll miss this mountain, its proximity to my city and its convenience. In the warmer months it seems I spend at least two weekends a month wandering its paths.

Last weekend I took a usual hike up to the restaurant to find that typhoon Bolaven had stripped down it's power lines. That place has undoubtedly hosted some of my favorite afternoons during the last year and it's seems unlikely that the issue will be reconciled before my departure. For that I am sad.

But, oh, Mudeung. You've been good to me. Your temples. Your rock formations. Your ability for night hikes. Your exercise parks. Your hula hoops. Your pagoda. Your hosting of kimbap lunches.
