Rereading some of my posts, I'm afraid they give the wrong impression of this experience, as they focus mostly on negative elements. This isn't because my day is mostly negative. It's because the negative things tend to be very specific - like the rain, or the guy vomiting all night and keeping us up, or the snagged bear line - and specific things are easy to write about. On the other hand, the best parts - just being outside all day and feeling free - are more difficult to describe and don't change day to day so they would get repetitive in a daily narrative.
My job right now is to walk through some of the prettiest areas of the eastern US every day, and make no mistake - it's an awesome job.
Ah the freedom, yes, the beauty and the two of you on an adventure
ReplyDeleteGo with the glass half full, that's the best!
ReplyDeleteThat is positive thinking I love to hear and read! Enjoy every step, site, smell, sound (except the snoring!), on this hike. Everything will be remembered: the good and bad stuff.
