I feel like an exhile. They don't understand why I can't just wear oxygen and live there-- which I did try for years. Didn't help, I'm too active to be held down by tubes.
That I can understand. Beautiful places are one thing. Being able to breath well enough to enjoy them is far more important.
I'm fortunate (and know it) that after 31 years of smoking I can still go hiking above 10,000 ft.
