Must Control Jealousy
May 25th, 2007 spryken
Crow has checked in from the PCT. Here I am, stuck in the office, shackled by responsibility. Some day, I promise myself, some day I will be able to do an AT thru-hike. Or at least annual long section hikes.
My hindrances? I’m the sole money earner for the family currently and I am a Scoutmaster. Being a Scoutmaster means that a lot of my vacation time is consumed supervising scout events. NOT that I am complaining. I love my family and am fully supporting my partner in her magazine endeavor. I am a Scout through and through. And Scouting gets my outdoor fix.
I will be able to hold off my Jealousy. I will!! I have a small group of older scouts that is going to do between 30-35 miles on the AT starting June 15th. I will be there. Clingman’s Dome to Lake Fontana. Only 21 more days to go. More on that trip in another post.
I’ve just gotta keep my FOCUS on what I have.
