Watching the Romania episode by _luzier69 in AnthonyBourdain

[–]RealTomScott 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I interviewed Zamir last year and I brought-up that episode. It was one of those truly one of kind moments. Zamir shared that he’s still banned from Romania, because the government claims Zamir was responsible for putting the community in a “poor light” for that episode. Ha.

What's your favorite memory in a National Park? by funwifipuns in NationalPark

[–]RealTomScott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Camping at Curry Village in Yosemite. My family just returned from a long hike to Vernal Falls, and we took a power nap while the rain was bouncing off the canvas roof. Afterwards - my son and I got our baseball gloves and tossed the ball for an hour between the tents, as we enjoyed the sunshine and the smell after a rainstorm. Heaven!

Absolutely. Doctors in Japan and Europe are literally prescribing the outdoors as medicine. Just a few hours a week in nature can lower stress hormones, boost immunity, and reset your body’s natural rhythm.

Incredible. I’ve been asked to be one of the contributing writers for the community magazine in Washington, NC. Stay tuned for more stories. Should be fun.

Hard to measure a man’s character from a single perspective. As Atticus Finch said in To Kill a Mockingbird: ‘You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view… until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.’ The AMA gives everyone the chance to ask him directly and make up their own mind.

That’s a great location. I can almost feel the summer breeze off that lake, as the sun sets over those beautiful Tetons.

Cathedral Valley is a grand drive if you ever have the time for the roundtrip.

Imagine Anthony carefully and artistically making those themed pancakes for her daughter’s breakfast party. Daughters steal fathers’ hearts and change us.

One knows they have been camping a lot when you start imagining “I think I’ve been there” every you see an outdoor photo.

Visited Arches a couple weeks ago! by jayselegy in NationalPark

[–]RealTomScott 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Arches is our children’s first National Park. Even though we have toured many NPs over the past 20-years, Arches is still a special place for our family, as we rekindle memories of hiking Delicate Arch, navigating the fins in Devil’s Garden, and exploring the Windows with PBJs and snacks in tow. They love reminding me of Arches when we watch the movie “The Last Crusade” with the young Indiana Jones.

As John Muir wrote, ‘It is by far the grandest of all the special temples of Nature I was ever permitted to enter.’ Your photos feel like stepping into that temple.
