Nothing rational ever happens in a dream. For a few seconds I’m advising Obama on raising the debt ceiling, then I’m running I’m naked through my neighborhood, mentally screaming “my kingdom for a loincloth.” So I see no reason to…
Appalachia and Beyond is hosting the August Outdoor Blog Carnival. Topic of the month: what is your dream hike? Blog carnivals with a theme like this present an excellent way to see how many ways people can put the same…
