"As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life - so I became a scientist. This is like becoming an archbishop so you can meet girls."

Chinle TrailIt had rained/snowed the previous day. Woke up to a beautiful clear morning (29 deg F, went above freezing during the day). Snow made the scenery much more beautiful. By the afternoon, there was much mud on the trail. Long 15.4 mile hike but nothing difficult.
