Wild by Cheryl Strayed

I took Natalia to the movies tonight to see "Wild," a story by Cheryl Strayed. 

I have been reading a book by the same title. The story is about a woman walking the Pacific Crest Trail, PCT, to find herself. 

The book is amazing, and the movie is excellent as well; however, the book has much more detail. 

I was hoping that Natalia would understand my longing for mountains and time in nature.

Last year, while spending a solo weekend in the Sierras in California, I hiked along the PCT, if only for a few miles. I can envision being on this trail for weeks at a time and the pronounced effect it would have on my psychology. 

I miss the Sierra Nevada mountains.

My favorite quotations..


“A man should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.”  by Robert A. Heinlein
