Nature

May 12, 2008

It isn’t that I dislike nature. I just don’t care for nature for the sake of nature. I understand others enjoy trees and insects and dirt and like to just stare at these things to be reminded of their existence. If I am in nature I am ploughing down the river or carving long trails in fresh powder.

This weekend my parents saw fit to take me hiking.

I will tell you two very important things about MD:

  1. I do not walk for the sake of walking. If there is no destination involved you are only serving to make me irritable and thirsty.
  2. If I am walking up a hill, there best be a bar at the top.

Keep that in mind should we ever meet. I will walk up Lombard if there is a glass of Zubruwka at the top.
