Life and Writing
As we all know, life never stops. Not unlike anyone who has tried to sustain a habit over years and years I’ve let my writing lapse here recently. But I’ve decided with the advent of a new job and a major shift in my schedule approaching that I should try and get back to somethingContinue reading “Life and Writing”
Camp fire in a parking lot
As I approached the big left corner the smell of acrid smoke got stronger and the engine began to sputter. I was definitely running out of gas, but what could the smoke be? I had no idea. I kept calm as the engine died, pulling off to the side of the road 100 yards toContinue reading “Camp fire in a parking lot”
Jungle Bums Biker Bunker
I’d had my face glued to the window. Coming down in a broad arc the Timor Sea spread out in front of us and to the west. Darwin from the air looked as rural as Wyoming. The think dense patches of tropical forest were broken only by rich brown soil and the metal roofsContinue reading “Jungle Bums Biker Bunker”
Talking stock
At the moment the dinning hall of the Wyss Wilderness Medicine Campus is brightly lit, filled with happy voices, punctuated with laughter, and the occasional beep from the microwave. Everyone is in different states of preparedness for the upcoming week, and overwhelmingly the impression is one of anticipation and excitement for whats to come. AlongContinue reading “Talking stock”
And so it begins a letter to myself: EMT at Wyss Medical Campus Lander, Wyoming 2018

You’ve been talking to William, the first person you met while, unloading your car, speaking about the anticipation of the course. You’re slowly starting to realize the vast amount of work ahead ofContinue reading “And so it begins a letter to myself: EMT at Wyss Medical Campus Lander, Wyoming 2018”
Cold feet
When I was in high school I got a ton of shit for being a little eccentric. Like anyone else I’ve had the things that I nerd out over. When I was in elementry school I carried around a copy of the U.S. constitution. In middle school I was obsessed with musical theater, don’t tellContinue reading “Cold feet”
Cause I need to be writing.
So I have finals and I’m stressed the hell out. So here is a story from my summer. In early August of 2017 I was finishing a summer of working with the summer camp Avid4 Adventure and getting back to my usual grind behind the bar at Tahona Tequila Bistro. I was working about 65hrContinue reading “Cause I need to be writing.”
Been outta sorts
It’s quite titillating how my writing is directly linked to where I am, who I am with, and what I am doing. I find that more often than not if I’m alone and in the wild I write the most. If I’m around friends but still in the woods, I still write but not nearlyContinue reading “Been outta sorts”
Back in the canyon
So where was I? Standing on a ledge shivering sound right? Well there I was perched 80ft up on the side of a whispering waterfall. The mossy walls of silver schist making them far more slick than they already looked under the pearl sheen of the water way. The ledge that I was on was underContinue reading “Back in the canyon”
