Today’s episode will open you up to how you can get a job at a national park. Rather than try to come up with some witty thing to say about it, I will leave you with some quotes from one of the greatest men in American history, John Muir. “The mountains are calling and I must go.” “The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.” “In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks.” “Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul.” “I only went out for a walk and finally concluded to stay out till sundown, for going out, I found, was really going in.” “Keep close to Nature's heart... and break clear away, once in awhile, and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean.” “When one tugs at a single thing in nature, he finds it attached to the rest of the world.” “When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the universe.” “Between every two pines is a doorway to a new world.”
