A PCT thru-hiker was sauntering the trail one day.  As he approached Big Pete’s Meadow, henoticed some smoke in the distance.  
As he got closer he saw an old Indian sitting by hiscampfire.  He stopped and saidhello.  The Indian replied that he hopedthe hiker was having a great time on the trail and with Mother Nature.
As they talked about the trail and their families back in civilization,the Indian mentioned he had a wife and children.  The thru-hiker asked what his wife’s name wasand how many children did he have.
The Indian said his wife’s name was Five Horses and he hadthree children.  The hiker said that wasa beautiful name and what was its significance. 
The old Indian replied, “Because she nags, nags, nags, nags, nags.”
