A little less of the usual Bill

Revisado: 03-26-23

Interesting travels across the US, but with a slightly less funny, slightly darker and perhaps more arrogant Bill.

And you thought working in a park was easy....

Revisado: 12-16-19

A behind the scenes look at what our dedicated parks professionals have to deal with - the good, the bad and the very unfortunate. Like it or not, when millions of people visit anywhere, sometimes things don’t always go as planned. Next time you’re visiting your favorite park; remember that the staff there might have just dealt with a serious issue so you could enjoy your picnic. Certainly makes one feel our valuable park systems are under resourced across the country. Support your federal, state and local parks!

Makes one wonder...

Revisado: 12-16-19

Makes one wonder how this complex system called the human body could have possibly happened by accident...it’s a pure miracle is what it is; that we are even alive.

Interesting book about a fascinating man

Revisado: 12-16-19

Interesting book about a fascinating man. He was a genius and a visionary who wasn’t properly diagnosed or treated - in fact, seems his doctors were delinquent and negligent in his care, rather content to continue milking him for his money rather than trying to cure him. One has to wonder what other advances or technological improvements he would have made had he lived longer.

Interesting book on the development of the early presidency; and how those presidents were in a position to formulate the office of the president restrain themselves and skillfully (or not) utilized The office where no roadmap existed before them.

And unbelievably fantastic book!

Revisado: 10-03-19

Having spent several years backpacking in Idaho; I am familiar with many of the places the author references; and actually was within 30 minute drive of Bucks Peak, which made her story that much more tangible for me; but what is astonishing, is her ability to break free from the ties that bonded her to a destructive lifestyle and become her own person; who earned a PhD - further proof that where there is a will there is a way. This is truly an amazing and inspiring history; that I recommend everyone read.

Overall, okay...interesting story

Revisado: 03-01-19

The main story was interesting and probably an accurate portrayal of life back then. It was engaging and the reader brought much of it to life with accents.

I felt that the inclusion of tangential stories related to Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung didn’t make sense in the context of the overall story...kind of something else going on over here I a parallel universe. It just seemed that this aspect of the story was disjointed and incongruent the main story; and seemed oddly gratuitous with regards to the sexual issues it brought up.

I do feel that the ending was lazy, uninteresting and anticlimactic and I was disappointed how it came to such an abrupt end.

However, it does stir the imagination that is for sure and is descriptive enough to stir the images in ones mind of life during a much different time than we know now.

Fascinating story - must listen to!

Revisado: 02-04-19

Further cementing how lucky we are to have gained our independence. The history of our fight for freedom is filled with close calls, razor thin margins, dumb luck, unbelievable persistence and Divine Providence; that is far too under appreciated in today’s social and political world. Our politicians; so quick to bargain away our rights; essentially trample and spit on the sacrifices these people made to secure our freedoms in the first place. ALL of our rights should be guarded with jealous attention. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel that is how we should honor the sacrifices these people made to give us the chance to live in a free country.
