Back to Blakeley


This earth is not our home, we are but guests here.  I know you have read this before from me, but I will continue to say it until the day I die.  Being outside has taught me so much, about myself and the world around me.  I am more and more thankful that I get to wander this earth and can't wait until my next adventure.  Every time I truly experience nature I realize more and more how wonderful it is, how beautiful it is and how small I truly am.  Every word, every picture and every adventure I hope at least one person has been inspired to give nature a try.  I doubt I will ever get do this for a living, but if I can just get people to get out and find their own adventure I will be rich.

Paul and I are back at it again, and it felt good.  We decided to go back to Blakeley today and conquer it.  We hiked nearly six miles and almost stepped foot on every trail Blakeley has to offer and let me say Blakeley has come a long way and it is definitely worthy of some foot travel.  We got to talk to the park rangers today and every member of the staff have been more than helpful, they have also been very excellent people with great attitudes.  We started off at Hallet's and made our way all the way to the Tensaw River.  The river was beautiful and to be in the delta brings me great joy.  I am definitely learning the ins and outs of Blakeley and hopefully soon will lead a day hike there, I will let all of you know. 


Oh nature how you make me whole, I have found you and I will never let you go.  With the sun shining on my face and the ground beneath my feet  I will wander this earth until the day I die.  Until next time, live to wander.
