I wrapped up my Pacific Crest Trail journey with my final audiobook: ‘Everyone in My Family Has Killed Someone’ by Benjamin Stevenson. 🎧 It’s a clever, witty, and laugh-out-loud twist on the classic whodunit—meta, smart, and packed with personality. S ...more |

I wasn’t sure about hearing his voice narrate, but it wasn’t as bad as I anticipated. The man clearly loves to hear himself talk—but mixed in with all that were some surprisingly good life lessons. While I was thru-hiking the Pacific Crest Trail, the ...more |

“I'm not sure who started it, but we have taken up the habit of signaling our arrival with a woot woot call. When everyone is present, we take a group photo of the Moving Village: Overdrive, Big Foot, Downhill, Soho, Halfway, the Kid, Jolly 3-0, Doc, Trudger, Kevin (now Tower, named for his childlike love of fire towers and his tall frame), and a hiker who has finally accepted his trail name, Mr. Fabulous.”

“It's not about getting to the end but the process it takes to get there. It's the sense of strength, endurance, and accomplishment that makes this experience worthwhile.”

“Most people live in this world asleep. We go through our routines, have our habits, are seduced by the illusions of advertising and consumerism, which create a life lacking in authenticity and integrity and sometimes real love.”
