After coming back down from them alive, I feel they have allowed my company. Almost like I have there respect. When I grew up in New York I used to solo around the shale among the gorges of the finger lakes. Especially the ones in Naples at the south end of Canadaigua Lake. It was in no way -smart climbing- and I don't think I have the balls to do that stuff again but at the time I would spend every weekend up there always hiking, camping by myself, and picking up any trash that I would see. That place became a big part of me and my passion for the outdoors and adventure. I always felt the safest there or the most fearless because I felt in a sense that I was accepted there. Like the book by Shel Silverstien, that was my giving tree.

Nathan, that was deep. Let's see if I can match half of that... The world is my giving tree and the apples the large hunks of rock I bite into. Sometimes they are crisp, sometimes bruised, but either way it's food for the soul. *MUNCH*
