Abstract | According to the author, Mike was his close friend and also his mentor. Mike helped him find his way into teaching and he drew him into traditional winter camping. His first winter camping experience was with Mike 16 years ago in Killbear Provincial Park, near Parry Sound. Mike was thinking up Community Environmental Leadership Program (CELP) way back then--even before then. Mike could see so far ahead. He is sure Mike was writing about CELP (or what would become CELP) in his journal on that trip. They went to visit Wayland Drew, author of the novel "Halfway Man," and talked about a lot of things--the book, the trail, canoe trips, Lake Superior teaching. The author looks back on his career and his life and he finds Mike on the trail, just off to the side, because it was the author's trail, not his. But Mike had helped guide him. In his wonderful, gentle, artful and affirming way, he'd guided. The author sees him there: he's grinning and nodding approval. His blue eyes are lit up. He's alive. (Contains 4 endnotes.) (ERIC). |
