"We all travel the Milky Way together, trees and men; but it never occurred to me until this storm-day, while swinging in the wind, that trees are travelers, in the ordinary sense. They make many journeys, not extensive ones, it is true; but our own little journeys, away and back again, are only little more than tree-wavings - many of them not so much."

-John Muir
 
I have formed my life philosophies around the writing of Muir and Leopold. I have walked in Muir's footsteps on the east coast in Bonaventure Cemetary and just 3 weeks ago in the Sierra Nevada Giant Forest. Now the only place left is Alaska. Someday.
