Just Pay it Forward.....

One of my favorite books, The Last Child in the Woods (Saving our Children from Nature Deficit Disorder) makes the point that all the environmentalists have gray hair, and it's critical that we pass our love of the mountains on to the next generation. This is a photo of my husband doing just that with nephew William---on a fall day in Metcalf Bottoms. It's so easy with all of the distractions and anxieties of today to think about other things, and get lost in the challenges and negativities of the moment. But then, a drive into the mountains and a few moments in the serenity of these hills puts it into perspective. Help someone else love the mountains, too!
