+1, love time in the wild.

Kind of funny when my nephew went hiking with me in Colorado, one day we hiked to a high mountain lake. We ate our lunch then I look and he's slinging his pack on for the trek back to the car, and town.

I had to explain to him, just chill out enjoy where you are, soak it in, explore around a little if your bored, etc. City kid.

These articles actually got me a bit depressed... I live in the city and finding time to get out into nature has lately become almost impossible. They made me yearn to have my feet in the dirt and building "forts" like i used to when I was younger. *sigh* alas...

If you suspect that statement to be true, then you'll probably want to know why it could be true. Well, this is what I have devoted my life to finding out, and I want to share with you everything i've learnt, as well as learn from you!
Shut me up?
