In a recent interview, Actor Zac Efron, start of the recent hit movie "Charlie St. Cloud" was asked what he would have rather done for a career. His answer was interesting.
Asked what he would do if he wasn’t an actor, he said: “I imagine I’d probably go and do something in the outdoors, the wilderness. I had a friend who was a park ranger in Yosemite and that seemed like an awesome job, so something in the outdoors.”
He's not the only one, Bruce. That was and has always been my "dream job," and I deeply regret not pursuing it more than I did. I settled. But I was good at what I did (teaching). However, I DID end up with a Master's in Environmental Education, and did my field work as a volunteer ranger with the San Gorgonio Wilderness Association for 2 summers. YOU have a job that I'm sure millions of other people envy, and I'm proud there are people like you serving the parks and natural spaces of this country.
