Benjimester on HubPages

Hi, I'm Benji, the guy on the left side of the picture.  Was born and raised in San Diego, California.  There are two overarching loves in my life.  One is for writing, the other is for working in the great outdoors.  Combining those two loves has been a very meaningful and rewarding experience.  For me, there's nothing better than spending a morning working hard with my hands in nature, and spending the afternoon writing.  Ralph Waldo Emerson expressed this relationship best:

"The charming landscape which I saw this morning, was indubitably made up of some twenty or thirty farms.  Miller owns this field, Locke that, and manning the woodland beyond.  But none of them owns the landscape.  There is a property in the horizon that no man has but he whose eye can integrate all the parts, that is, the poet.  This is the best of these men's farms, yet to this their warranty-deeds give no title."
