If you know Corey, you are familiar with his desire to be "one" with nature. If you know me, you are familiar with my desire to be "one" with a comfortable hotel room.
A couple years ago, we reached a compromise and bought a pop-up camper. I really enjoy camping with my family, knowing that I have the comfort of a bed and electricity.
This summer, Corey has convinced me to give up all modern conveniences to hike 22 miles in 2 days with all of our belongings on our backs and sleep in a tent in the middle of nowhere (at least that is what it is going to feel like to me) with no electricity an no running water. This is a "test" hike to see if I am "man" enough for another hike that we are thinking about taking as part of a 10th anniversary vacation this winter.
Though I am fairly certain I have lost my mind, I am looking forward to seeing Lake Superior and experiencing something that Corey enjoys. I'm pretty sure I will survive, but I don't think the trip is going to convert me from a resorter to a backpacker.
