  68. Tommy Messoresays:

    I have loved the outdoors since I could walk. I love wilderness camping, breaking the ice for water to wash up, shave, prepping a meal. The great feeling you get at night, the sounds, the solitude of being out there, just you and nature.

  69. Tommy Messoresays:

    The still of the night, the crackle of the campfire, even the night time visitors (raccoons, etc.,) happy for an old slice of bread, from breakfast. The acorns, pinecones dropping on the tent at night. Beyond peaceful, a night that you can share with nature.
