I'm not exactly sure when I discovered my love of hiking, but it's there. I suppose it happened once I stopped working nights, and had a humane work schedule that allowed such things as "time off" and the ability to schedule events more than a week in advance.
So I've been doing more outdoorsy stuff with my family, and I discover that the further I am from any shred of society, the more peaceful I feel. Also, I realized that nobody can keep up with my natural pace, and slowing down is really frustrating.
Seriously, I'm an extrovert. Being out in nature is great, but being *alone* out in nature is creepy. I gotta strike a balance here somewhere.
