Self Portrait on the summit: In praise of hogs

Description

:

Pirsig: "We stop and park at a turnoff where a number of tourists take pictures and look around at the view and at one other. At the back of his cycle John removes his camera from the saddlebag. From my own machine I remove the tool kit..." Thanks to the Harley couple from Pennsylvania, I am finally able to get into a photograph to prove I actually made this journey. In praise of hogs. And what a masterpiece of a view it is, the rumpled and sunburned motorcycle rider notwithstanding. I felt no compulsion to unpack my tool kit.
