Day 6: A Picture of a person you would like to trade places with for a day
I am assuming that this means time travel is possible, so i chose John Muir. It doesn't necessarily have to be him, but he personifies what I would like to be able to do for a day. I would love to be able to see the American West before it was taken over by highways, powerlines, McDonalds, even the BLM or NPS. To see it unadulterated, in all its glory, the way it was before we spoiled it.
Just think about it... walking through wilderness, no trail, no map.... never seen a picture or a drawing of where you are headed... you come around a bend in a river, or over the crest of a hill and there it is.... maybe it is the Tetons, maybe it is Crater Lake or the Pacific Ocean.... but to you, the explorer it is seen by you for the first time ever....
