Being off the grid is overrated

wildflowers
No internet required for this. But that doesn’t mean the internet doesn’t make life better.

 

While i’m not a shopper, i did enjoy doing it with Cheryl, as our shoes dried while we walked around in West Glacier.

Having a slow ATT signal was better than none at all.

i know you enjoyed the grid.

i did too.

Why do so many people think we need to get off the grid?

Remember our conversation about using the internet for good versus using it as a drug?

Did you know long ago i dreamed of being a Park Ranger at Glacier?

Here’s a piece of advice from the fact it never happened: Working hard for a living, and living in that dream, may be a trap.

Many of the interns here at GNP love being here but often have to work so many hours it’s challenging for them to spend the quality leisure time from their dreams.

Shade is so necessary.

 

Our lunch break was a perfect combination of shade, cool (temperature) rock seats, and a nice view.

While we hadn’t made it halfway yet, it was great to have rested legs for the Grinnell Glacier Overlook hike.

By far the toughest part of the trail was the 1,000-foot elevation gain on the half-mile spur.

Like we had talked about, do you feel it would be a decent topic to include in your college essay?

Why?
