All this talk about making good choices has me think of what I've
learned to do after my last bad choice to continue walking in wind/rain.
GO TO BED!!! STAY THERE UNTIL THE STORM PASSES
Now that's a good choice, one that any hiker out for more than a month
can appreciate. And it's a matter of looking forward to bad weather so
that you can hunker down for a while. "Oh boy, a storm is coming. It's
11AM and I've got 12 miles in, but it's starting to rain and the wind is
blowing 30 mph + and I get to HUNKER DOWN!!!"
Part of the trip's mindset might just include such an attitude!
