You described it well. It&#039;s almost like another dimension of life when I can be there when no one else is around. I know it is a gift to see and hear and smell and feel the life of the wilderness as streaks of color in the pale sky begin to welcome in the morning. Then there is finding some secluded spot in the cool of the day, and as evening settles over the mountaintops and new songs and sounds arise. I still remember some of these sights and sounds whilst I lived in Africa. Nothing like it, either where I live now or over there. Thanks for taking the time to write.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Thank you Tom.  I don&#039;t actively seek solitude and there are many things that recharge my batteries besides solitude, but I know exactly what you mean.  We live in a busy world, and that is fine with me but as a hunter, I find solitude as a by-product of that activity.  For me, there is nothing more peaceful than arriving at my hunting area an hour before daylight and settling in against a big pine tree.  On a cold, crisp, windless morning, I try to guess what the first sign of life will be that breaks the silence.  A nuthatch?  A wolf howl?  An elk bugle?  But it is also the most perfect time to pray because in that silence there are absolutely no distractions.  I know you get this, my fellow wanderer.]]></description>
