"As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life - so I became a scientist. This is like becoming an archbishop so you can meet girls."

First of twoMy wife and I made the effort to pick up this one as well as Mount Lewis near Battle Mountain on a beautiful (but warm) Nevada day. This one was highlighted with a nice visit with a local rancher who shared some of his time with us explaining about the workings of his cattle ranch. He said that 2500 head of cattle was a full time job and he had just sent two cowboys after a bunch of strays.
