Here Comes the Sun

Fawn Germer did not climb Mount Everest, hike the Pacific Crest Trail, or eat, pray, and love her way around the world. All she did was get a van and go for a really long ride with her dog. People do that all the time. It doesn't seem special; you wouldn't say it was extraordinary.
