It can happen that suddenly; you get lost and end up dead in one evening from what started out as a fun trip.This is what almost happened the other evening while doing a little trip to the hot water springs on the border of France.
I’ve faced death a few times in life and this one was right there with the other times and I somehow got out of this one alive too.
I am going back to my little town tomorrow, however I will for sure remember this fun trip and all of the silly things that came with it. In just two afternoons I’ll be working at the heating, ventilation, and A/C supplier doing my normal heating and cooling unit repairs and thinking about this trip and the people I was with. I will be taking another trip over the Atlantic Ocean soon and heading for another adventure back in my hometown. My neighbor is a new business owner back home and was asking me if I could help him do some commercial A/C installations and I told him yes of course I could. I can tell him all about my fun trip to the mountains with my friends and how I almost ended up being a landmark on that mountain for other hikers to take pictures of. I have a new appreciation for heating and fireplaces in homes, after being so cold for so long on that mountain that one night. I guess next time I go hiking I am going to bring a compass and a tent, so if I get lost I can just make a little home and sleep for the evening. Oh, and I would also bring a gas space heater too!
