CURRENT MISSION

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

picked herbs in the mountains outside L.A. Saw the worlds biggest red-cedar. saw the worlds biggest western hemlock. saw the worlds biggest spruce. drove a truck with no transmission 200 miles. got stuck hitchhiking in the desert. loved getting stuck in the desert. got a ride from a man with no pants through the sierra nevada.

教，学，和分享

One final paragraph of advice: Do not burn yourselves out. Be as I am - a reluctant enthusiast... a part-time crusader, a half-hearted fanatic. Save the other half of yourselves and your lives for pleasure and adventure. It is not enough to fight for the land; it is even more important to enjoy it. While you can. While it's still here. So get out there and hunt and fish and mess around with your friends, ramble out yonder and explore the forests, encounter the grizz, climb the mountains, bag the peaks, run the rivers, breathe deep of that yet sweet and lucid air, sit quietly for awhile and contemplate the precious stillness, that lovely, mysterious and awesome space. Enjoy yourselves, keep your brain in your head and your head firmly attached to the body, the body active and alive, and I promise you this one sweet victory over our enemies, over those desk-bound people with their hearts in a safe deposit box and their eyes hypnotized by desk calculators. I promise you this: You will outlive the bastards.
-Edward Abbey
