These were my famous words after a several mile hike to Twin Lakes. I felt that way after that hike and that is about how I feel after hiking or of any outdoor experience like hunting and hiking around the mountains in search of elk. I love the outdoors and love to go with Tom hunting and would love to be with him when he shoots his first animal with a bow! I loved being in elk country and hearing an elk bugle for the first time! I will never forget this or when last year while we hunting we heard the elk bark! It sounded just like dogs barking! That was truly fascinating! So why do I say it is fun when your done? Well after the experience are the memories and the feeling of accomplishment that I hiked several miles and I survived! I love the memories and that feeling of accomplishment! I do not love the way I feel while I am tromping around in the mountains. For some reason I get a headache, get lighted, and dizzy and feel as though I could fall over with each step. I suppose that the body is not used to the abuse of hiking in steep country after it hasn’nt done much all year! It is time to do something about that condition and train and some day I can enjoy the experience during the experience! until then it is fun when it is done!
Hmmm funny how Tom feels the same way when we are in a shopping mall. Maybe there are some things that we will never enjoy doing together! I do hope that I will be enjoy that outdoors though. There are many more fascinating and awesome discoveries in nature than there are under the florescent lights of the shopping mall! Hmmm those give a headache too!
