The Presentation


Mike Hall Host, Ramblin' & Amblin' ▶ Speaking
I got spooked. I had a slightly faster walker coming up behind me quietly and I was so dazed and thinking about this I didn't hear him. No issue just he passed by peacefully and I just oh and then you know if you saw that video but I accidentally closed the camera I try not to record other people on the trail. That's why sometimes the videos would get ended abruptly is that I'm being kind of in the middle of a thought and I'll see another person walking towards me and I you know for a little while I was like trying to just power through it but I always felt awkward anxiety about well it's that defensiveness again it 's just you know I'd say oh monologuing you know hi oh hi you know sorry just monologuing here um I'm not recording you or trying to cover the back camera so that way they know that I'm not in fact recording them especially if they were you know young lady or something like that I don't I don't want them to feel like they're being um because I've heard from people I've heard from people I'm not recording but just well yeah sometimes recording um oh look at this nice trail here follow that but um you know would I take this trail if I was a woman by myself probably not and it's not that I'm so strong and I'm so powerful that nobody's gonna be so powerful that nobody 's gonna bother me but um but um why would they um I like they don't have anything they want unfortunately women always do and that's a problem but it's just ever since ever that's uh yeah I didn't make this path either but here I am the uh pine cones on the ground are beautiful oh so I'm gonna be a little lean-to here too better go get Officer Maylee let him know and um and um and uh the um park ranger park officer park park to park I don't think he's a real place officer but um the uh I think it's just none of us made the rules of the game oh look at this here somebody put something oh I bet somebody came through was walking through here and they dropped dropped their stuff that's a bummer all right well hopefully somebody comes back through it all right I'm gonna go under I'm so fit I've lost 20 pounds since I started taking these walks so all right this one's just a blah blah blah blah blah one I think I'm gonna flip the camera around all right thanks bye Thank you.
