Allen Road Nature Trail, Mission Hills

In the heart of Mission Hills, right off of Ft. Stockton Rd. is a road that was never completed. In its place, is a rough nature trail that runs from the rim of Mission Valley, down to Hotel Circle at the bottom.

Although the path is well established, this trail is rugged in patches with downed trees, stands of prickly cacti, and weeds over growing the trail. 

So when you see Espresso Mio, park on Ft. Stockton and walk down the road behind the cafe. A nice trail awaits.

Isobel Campbell & Mark Lanegan - Come Undone

via youtube.com

This reminds me so much of Gainsbourg / Birkin duets from the 1970s.

Lyrics (courtesty of http://www.xtralyrics.com/):

I stumble and I fall, your time is on my side
Don't make sense of it all, despite my foolish pride
It's got me on my knees, tearin' up my heart
I'm shakin' at my bones, tearin' me apart

When I can't get close to you
I come undone, I come undone
Come undone, babe, I come undone

Time will take its toll, time can break your heart
And if I had the chance, we'd never have to part
Took my only flame, took my one desire
Threw it all away when jumping in the fire

I can't get close to you
I come undone, come undone
Come undone, babe, I come undone

When the day is done I lay me down to rest
Everyone will see that I loved you the best
When all is said and done here simple and explain
And if I have the chance I'll do it all again

But I can't get close to you
I come undone, I come undone
Come undone, babe, I come undone

I'm not scared of the dark though you tangle and tease me
But worse than your bark you said you'd never leave me
The devil make everybody, don't please believe me
Oh love of my life, won't you let me down easy?

Undone, I come undone
Come undone, babe, I come undone
I come undone, I come undone
Come undone, babe, I come undone
