Chris Hedges, whose column would normally appear here at this time, is busy recovering from his amazing trip up and down a mountain. We’ll hear all about it, we’re sure, but until then, busy yourselves with the classics.

Leefeller - When the hike was first advertised, it was mentioned that the theme of the hike would be Chris’ book “War is a Force that Gives Us Meaning”.

I’m recovering myself so I can understand the need for a day off. The trek was a
huge success in my opinion. Rigorous, adventurous, rewarding. Unforgettable.

One must have patience waiting for texting burning bushes in the mountains.

Everyone needs time to recycle those thoughtless thoughts seeping through the Swiss cheese of the mind. Light is seen most differently in the mountains I envy Hedges. Vacation for me may only be like a hope for change.

In the end I may have missed Hedges article more than I anticipated? Must say it is fun to poke fun at the Hedges montage.

It would be fun to know who of the known regular TD posters actually may have joined the Mountain trek, obviously it was not I. Wonder did they discuss the birds and the bees or more religion and politics?  In the mountains one leaves all the BS behind and should enjoy mother nature!
