I don't want to add to the noise. I don't want to waste anybody's time. I want to contribute something useful and interesting.
So I'll spell out some reasons why I'm blogging.
Powers of observation
As a journalist, I consider this my most important skill. If you can't see the story (either visually or logically), you can't get it into print. The same goes for everyday life. If you don't pay attention to your surroundings, you will miss opportunities or get into trouble.
I'll kick around some ways to be a better observer of the world. I will apply this discussion primarily to enjoying the outdoors, whether in the wild or in the city.
