[pct-l] Sensitive PCT Hiker

[hiker97 at aol.com]

Ourintrepid PCT hardcore hiker, Grizzly, and his lovely wife Trail Dust go to seekmarriage counseling.
 
When askedwhat the problem was, Trail Dust, went into a passionate, painful tiradelisting every problem they had ever had in the 15 years they had been marriedand on the trail. 

She went on and on and on: neglect lack of intimacy, emptiness, loneliness, andfeeling unloved and unlovable --- an entire laundry list of unmet needs she hadendured over the course of their marriage. Especially, about Grizzly going offto go backpacking with his bros and leaving her behind. 

Finally, after allowing this to go on for a sufficient length of time, thetherapist got up, walked around the desk and after asking Trail Dust to stand.He then embraced and kissed her passionately. Trail Dust quietly sat down asthough in a daze. 

The therapist turned to her husband, Grizzly, and said, "This is what yourwife needs at least 3 times a week. Can you do this?" 
 
Grizzlythought for a moment and replied, "Well, I can drop her off here onMondays and Wednesdays, but on Fridays, I go hiking."
