We all make decisions on how to spend out time, resources, and energy. Some people work. Others exercise. Some people travel. Some people watch the Kardashians on television. I chose to do something very tiring, strenuous, difficult, challenging yet still enjoyable. Not every single second was enjoyable but most of it was enjoyable. I am glad to be back home where I have the luxury of refrigeration, a soft mattress with clean sheets, a toilet that flushes and toilet paper right at hand, clean water from the tap, a microwave and an oven, a variety of food to eat, and several vehicles to choose from if I want to go somewhere. Also, I own quite a few pairs of shoes so I can switch out if my feet start hurting. I just returned from four days on Isle Royale where we went backpack camping. I am talking primitive camping here. I will offer more information on that historic trip some day when I can keep my eyes open and my brain focused better than I can today.
