Nosey nosey nosey. How the heck am I supposed to work on putting the little fence up to keep Junebug away from the chickens, when they won’t stay away from me while I am trying to work. All of them had me surrounded the entire time while I was trying to stab the fencing in the ground. Stupid thing kept rolling back up on me, chickens were hanging out between my legs, bawk bawk bawking at me. I told them multiple times I was putting up a fence. I thought I was being very clear, but they continued to bawk bawk bawk at me. It is quite possible they were trying to tell me how to do my job, and the fact that I don’t actually speak chicken was mercy, since there were six of them with opinions. If I was going to take advice from any of them, I think it would be Heather. She looks a little nerdy, so she must be smarter.

Skywalker: Highs and Lows on the Pacific Crest Trail

Skywalker
Highs and Lows on the Pacific Crest Trail
Authored by Bill Walker
The Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail (PCT)is the perfect place for an average person to do something extraordinary. Bill Walker (“Skywalker”), who stands 6’11”, might seem like anything but average. Yet in a brutally honest tone, he lays to bare all his considerable weaknesses and fears. Among these are crushing weight loss and fatigue, along with a fear of getting lost or a bear stealing his food. Nonetheless, he is bound and determined to hike the PCT, which at 2,663 miles, runs all the way from Mexico to Canada.
The PCT’s calling card is its stunning beauty. It has a diversity of geography unequaled by any footpath in the world. Haunting and beckoning the PCT hiker are the implacable desert, the towering majesty of the so-called High Sierra, and the ruggedly bleak, northern Cascade range. Indeed, the PCT hiker faces much greater extremes of terrain and climate than on the famed Appalachian Trail. Completing this demanding challenge calls for overwhelming clarity of purpose.
Walker’s signature characteristic as a writer is his real talent in capturing people (“Skywalker’s humor, his delight in human foibles appeal to a broad audience.”–Jeff Minnick, Smoky Mountain Book News). Obviously, he is a people person because he runs into and vividly describes a truly colorful cast of characters from seemingly all walks of American life. Among these are Uber Bitch, Shit Bag, and Serial Killer; the reader learns how these hikers ended up with their names (hint: blunders).
The reader need not worry that Walker is a bully. Throughout this irreverent narrative, he turns his considerable supply of humor back on himself in ruthlessly self-deprecating fashion. It all makes for a delightful read.
