What I did over Christmas Break: January 17, 1980/THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN/Page 13 Head for the hills! by Andy Felnstein So what should one do with the first four week break Cullowhee has graced us with in years? You might as well pick out a nice warm part of the country that looks like it should have good hiking trails and is somewhat located near an interstate, get out that magic thumb and go. Hitching and hiking, ah, the life of the vagabond. Gotta get cured of these Cullowhee blues before sticking my head back into that 15 week grind/limp to the finish line. A fifty cent phone call to the monument outside to Tucson and as luck would have it, they do have camping trails in the cactus forest and there isn't a whole lot of water. "Quick, everybody drink this milk, we gotta have water jugs for the desert." "Meet me at the first campsite on the fifth or whenever ya get there." (Deadlines do in more hitchhikers than anything else.) "O.K., I'll look for messages at the ranger station and see ya there." Better pack all of the winter gear for the trip out and the tent, kitchen and sleeping bags too. I guess I should try and get some sleep, but, nope, too excited, out on the four lane and cruising. Trying to visualize just how much road is out there %with cars and trucks going every which a way. It's like stepping onto a magic carpet or getting into the main blood artery of this country's breathing body and flowing through it. Four round trips to Seattle has got this ole thumb pretty well warned up and throbbing for more. Even college students get the blues. Out of Asheville at dawn and into Atlanta by sunset. Lousey, rotten luck, but get to see Anderson S.C. and Gainsville Ga. and learn everything there is to know about selling car stereos and hi-fi. Should be down around Mobile by now but what's 8 hours when I've got a mere 8 days to go , a mere 1800 miles? Thank you gay people of Atlanta for your many rides that night, but no thanks, strictly hetero. Alabama by bedtime. Slow luck means that long rides are soon to be had and sure enough 2 rides later I'm in San Antonio. YAHOO! Real cowboys and the city bus driver doesn't speak much English. Three days with big moons at a hunting ranch in west Texas. Sore back from picking up pretty rocks, fossils with crystals. "How much will it cost to mail back all these rocks and cactus?" Hope the mailman doesn't deliver me a bunch of mushy rocks. Lucky ride into Carlsbad Caverns and back out to an interstate days later. On to the rendezvous in Tucson! Scott should be caught up with me by now, but never did I expect him to walk past me that night on the trail and go the extra 4 miles into camp at three in the morning. Moonlit cactus and a ride from Hank can give even the most tired hippie energy. Must have been a good star arrangement for traveling. Six days of rehabilitating rambles through the brambles of 40 foot cactus, sun, cyotes, canyons, and more sun. Arizona, ah, lunch in the nude after a light snow last night. Wish I could take more than these cactus splinters home with me. What? Class starts on Monday and if this is Thursday, hmmm, better hit the road Jack. Zip, zip, El Paso, zip Amarillo (How did I get here?) Nineteen year old truck driver shouts across the street to longhair with the cowboy hat, "Got any smokin dope? Longhair nods. Eighteen-wheeler whips across 3 lanes of traffic to pull into grocery store parking lot and receives free Texas dirt weed. "Let's find a wet county and get a six pack." Zip, zip, Amarillo to Clyde in four rides (not bad ole thumb). First rain of the whole trip in Balsam Gap. Home to hot showers and stereo. Ah, touch b_ae...safe. With desert grit still in one's teeth, the Smokies' moist haven takes on new meaning. With an adventure tucked in your back pocket, it might be easier to sit still in class, at least until spring break. The Sylva Church of Christ Welcomes You!
