Growing up in Colorado, I remember the reverence we held, and were taught, for this majestic backyard - How precious it is.

Breaks my heart now.

Everything you write here needs to be said. Thanks for saying it so well.

I coined the term Outdoor Industrial Complex. Are you going to reference my post?

If you would like to link up and talk sometime, my email is: anniewlodance@gmail.com. I am a runner/old school outdoor ed person/ex-climbing industry, and dancer.

Interesting -- send the post along, I'll take a look! I've been using the term since my graduate work in about 2013-2014, so it will be interesting to see if there's some influence there.
