The perception of wilderness can be problematic. One of the most prominent points that Cronon made in his evaluation is the ideology that wilderness is an illusion to escape reality. This perception can be ambiguous because it segregates humanity from nature, by establishing the idea that wilderness is separate from everyday life. Also, Cronon calls attention to the issue of dividing the land and calling it wilderness. The issue of this isolation is that it disintegrates humans and nature, rather than bringing them more in unity.

The Lewis and Clark Expedition Thomas Jefferson proposed for the west to be explored, but it was the brave and talented men of Lewis and Clark to lead an exploration into the unchartered land. The west was unknown to the settlers of eastern America. Voyages had been attempted but none succeeded and proved to be any useful until Lewis and Clark took over. The men were to be challenged by unknown animals, plants and Indians; whilst overcoming new climates and terrains, with the main task still at mind of finding a water passage to the Pacific Ocean. The men were prepared to be pushed to their maximum and have to fight to stay alive in unknown territory.
When I visited Lewis and Clark I felt like this where I belong. As a writer, I’m always searching for a place to learn and create, and for me that place is Lewis & Clark. Lewis & Clark reminds me of a writing camp over 800 miles away from home called Fishtrap, where I found myself feeling at home surrounded by strangers that I got to know as kind, friendly, serious, soulful, curious, hard working, open minded and inspired writers all during the week we spent together. This is what I feel in Lewis & Clark. Although I’ve merely scratched the surface of it I, it feels like home

Traveling St. Augustine once said, “The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only one page.” I agree with this quote because traveling is an experience of life.

Traveling increases an individual’s understanding of other cultures, religions, and ways of life. The various places I wish to visit consist of modern, historic, and diverse cities around the world.

Over thanksgiving break, my friend and I decided to go visit the California Museum near downtown. After we purchased our entrance, the first thing that caught my eye was the live size bear in front of the museum. This was my first time at that specific museum so it caught my eye more than my friend. Since he has been there already, he showed me around and we went outside to see the giant Constitution Wall. The wall was also fascinating because it was huge and it had phrases from the California Constitution.
Warm, sunny Destin is like Heaven on earth. This last summer I got a chance to visit Destin for summer vacation. Yes, the 16 hour drive was not super fun, but it was TOTALLY worth it in the end. I had a ton of fun. We spent most days relaxing on the beach, but we also went to this huge amusement park called the track.
