Tonight I had a great talk with my mentor, Lee. He's the person who created the Quest backpacking program and set up the organizational structure. Without his vision and direction, it wouldn't exist. He and his wife are spending the winter in Florida so we won't be able to get together for a couple months. He was very excited to hear the news that I had finished the book and he loved the title. There are a few chapters that he figures in prominently so I'll be sending those to him to examine. I want to make sure he is happy with the stories I've told about him.
It smelled like spring today. Forty-four degrees and rain. Actually, it felt bit like backpacking weather and I love walking in warm rain. Even though the sidewalks were icy, it was so refreshing.
Ice sheets have slipped away. Is that a bit of yellow-green on the willow in the distance?
Spring is coming!
