It all washes off.

I'm a hiker, backpacker, and gardener. I love dirt.

A couple of good friends and a bunch of dirt are among the stuff of the highest value in this world.

In the faint moonlight, the grass is singing
Over the tumbled graves

Dirt is good. Without it nothing would grow. However, like other have said, man can make come dirt bad (such a shame) but not all dirt.

I like dirt. I don't mind getting dirty, but at the same time, I try not to eat the stuff. After all, dirt consists of many things including decaying matter in which all kinds of bacteria feasts on, including the harmful kind of bacteria. A few germs just makes for a stronger immune system. But ingesting tons of it is just asking for trouble.


As much knowledge as a man acquires in technology with his brain, so should he equally acquire it in primitive living skills with his hands. –David

I adhere to the 5 second rule. And with some delicacies, I'll go ten seconds or more.


Spending time with children is more important than spending money on them. (Don't know who said it but I like it)

I love the dirt. It is something that distinguishes me on a deeper level from most people I know and I love it! It is my signature in this world and I'm proud of it!
