Straight and Narrow

The straight and narrow path was a pretty easy choice when we lived in the jungle, the options weren't that appealing. Take the photo above as an example; walk on the logs or step off into boot eating mud. Wander too far off the path and you find something that will eat you, boots and all.

Walking the straight and narrow was a no brainer in the jungle, but it wasn’t near as much fun as flying it! You see, for every 1 hour spent walking on a well groomed trail as pictured, the same distance could be covered in 1 minute in a small airplane. Hmmm, take a 20 minute flight to the nearest clinic, or spend 20 hours hiking.
