The Little things
The Little Things.
I’ve been home in North Dakota now for a little over two weeks, and during that time in addition to being a bum by not working and enjoying every second of it. In fact I haven’t had any desire to go back to my former job at Pizza Hut. And that is truly a good thing. Besides I’ll be pretty busy during the winter in Mammoth so it’s a good trade off. But I’m starting to go a little stir crazy but a trip back to DC to check out what’s going on with my old team and host family. It’s going to be a blast. But now that I have been home I’ve realized things I’ve missed about living in civilization and not in Denali National Park in Alaska and few things I've miss about denali
Here’s just a few things I’ve missed during a summer in a national park.
Getting up in the middle of the night and not having to get dressed and walk a quarter of a mile to use the bathroom.
Opening up the refrigerator and deciding what to eat for dinner at 10 at night,
Going to the store on whim, instead of planning two weeks in advance.
Perkins’s Runs.
Living in the same place that you work.
Drinking beer with people whose goal isn’t to get drunk and start fires. (Long story) instead it's to discuss beer and theology.
Being miles away from a ballpark.
Having a discussion about cows “when asked what have you been up too?”
Gaming.
These a few things I’ve missed about civilization
And now for some things I’ve missed about living in a national park.
Living in the same place you work.
Having conversations with people from three different states during lunch.
Talking to people from two eastern European countries during dinner, and having three lanagues used fluenty
Walking 100 yards and being in the middle of nowhere.
Starting a hike at 11:00 pm at night and not worrying about it getting dark at all.
The Midnight sun baseball game.
Being in a place that most never will get to in their lifetime.
Getting paid to work in a national park.
Never having to explain to people why you work in seasonal jobs, because everybody else is doing the same thing you are.
Are just a few things I’ve thought about.
