"you may not want to lead a life of a lawyer after this."
Just like any other profession, there are many ways to lead the life of a lawyer, allowing for many different perspectives.
Feb 15, 2010 at 1:54 pm #1574089You didn't even list any reasons not to. I suspect there aren't any that matter. Have fun. *jealous*
Feb 16, 2010 at 6:37 am #1574373I will admit that if Brandon's choice were between hiking the PCT or starting law school THIS year it would be a much harder call. But since he doesn't plan to start law school until fall 2011 IMHO this is a no-brainer.
As I said, voice of experience. I regret all my missed opportunities from earlier in life, and would spare others that angst. When you're 80 which will you look back upon more fondly- "I scrimped cash to keep my car!" or "I hiked the PCT!"
Hike it, Brother.

As a Class of '07 PCTer I definitely endorse your decision. Feel free to PM me if there are any questions you have on gear, resupply etc.

Brandon could do the PCT and study Trail Law.
