"Camping: the delight of picking a place - fresh, beautiful. Here are no wearisome sermons - comfortable, commonplace, and humdrum. Instead, there is an escape from every phase of civilized formality, from all the fixed societal laws of action . . .
"Here we find ever-changing scenes: new "furniture" in the dining room every day and every meal. Suddenly, the great heaven is lighted with ten thousand gleaming worlds!"
The Contemplative John Muir
