Quiet day in the desert. We came back from the grocery store when we noticed a car that we did not recognize pulling into the "Visitor Parking" area. We unloaded groceries and I was going to park my car when a slender, older gentleman approached me. He introduced himself and it turns out that he was an old NOLS instructor who hadn't worked in years. Chaz was in town from Montana visiting friends and he thought he would swing by the base. Chaz apparently worked a lot in Alaska and had never been to our base before, so I gave him a tour and we chatted briefly afterwards. It was neat to meet someone who had worked at the school before me and we laughed that after fifty years of taking people into the wilderness, a lot of things remain the same about NOLS.Today's quote is from Ed Abbey:
"Wilderness is not a luxury but a necessity of the human spirit."
