Dan's Outside

I go, I see, I do, I walk, I think, I like…

Revving up the blog

Now that spring has arrived – and my spring break approaches – it seems like time to start posting here once again. It is not that I haven’t been out and about. (I have – see my photography blog.) But for some reason I just haven’t been making the time to post here as often as I used to this past winter.

Hey, More Wilderness!

SF Gate reports that congress has voted to expand wilderness areas in nine states, perhaps the largest such moves in about a quarter century. Is that a breath of fresh air I feel!?

(Predictably, Republican opponents described the protection of a few more remaining bits of American wonder as a “land grab.” Funny, I thought they supported “land grabs…” But I guess that is only as the ones doing the grabbing are their corporate donors. ;-)
