Thirty Years Ago..... July 18, 1988. They Ruined My LIfe!!!!
I became hooked on mountains, rivers, and scenic vistas. Doomed to a life of seeking the next turn of the trail. Traveling down unknown paths. Backpacks, paddles, dry bags, sailboats, climbing gear, stoves, tents and a never ending desire for the next fix. Yep, its a disease. A deadly allergy to office buildings, ties, cities, and the "matrix" of rat race. A genetic wanderlust passed down since the 1740's when the patriarch set foot in the Virginia Colony, endured the Revolutionary War, founded a town in Ohio in 1806, Pioneered in Indiana. Its a way of life, for some its a calling, to stay out of the flow and seek the horizons. Escape the Matrix while you can, go for a journey while you still can!
