Anyone who thinks they “Love Nature” is welcome to spend 24 hours with me, outside in the Umpqua National Forest, without bug spray or sunscreen and tell me that shit again.

*snickers like the Cheshire cat* Five days and four nights in a heavily wooded state park in southeast Oklahoma in late April with the entire campsite turning into a swamp after a hard rain and a tornado outbreak one day that week. Bugger off with your "24 hours in the woods with no bug spray"

Where I camp every year, we share land with Cottonmouth snakes, tarantulas, coyotes, all sorts of flies and mosquitoes, and Thor's rage. All at the same time.

Anyone who says they "love nature" is welcome to spend six months with me through-hiking the Appalachian Trail from south to North.

I lived in Fuzhou for five years, summer temperature 40C or higher every day. When people talk about wanting a summer holiday in the sun my scowl carves deeper than the Grand Canyon.

I would endure heat and bugs for a chance to travel to another continent.
