Item number 4,732 from The Grand To-Do List:

Hike to the very tippity-tip of Cape Flattery,
the northwesternmost point of the continental States,

stand leaning into the wind and rain, back to the trees,
discovering how sea stars and cormorants spend their Mondays,

gazing out to open sea with the spray crashing in your ears,
erosion and subduction shaping the world beneath your very feet,

and all three thousand land-mass miles extending behind you:
Check.
