He reminds me a lot of my roommate (a paralegal for a corporate law firm who is an outdoorsman through and through). I’ll keep you posted on our campaign, thanks for the support!

I loved this line: “If I had to do it again I would, but it is certainly not how I want to spend the rest of my life.” Keep us posted on the campaign – your story reminded me of Mathew Powell’s; he spoke at our event last week and talked about having so many more hours in the day, now, to pursue his outdoor interests… check out his profile: http://escapethecity.org/heroes/628-matt-powell
