There is a common belief that a big life needs to occur in a large city or place with a lot of activity. But, many people live their lives in the small towns where they were born and raised. While we tend to admire those who set out to new places and unfamiliar experiences, Annie B. Jones says that we can discover extraordinary things by staying where we are. She shares why she challenges the notion the lives in the big city with the big, important jobs are the ones that matter most. Annie is the host of From the Front Porch podcast, and author of the book, Ordinary Time: Lessons Learned While Staying Put.

Today Kara Noonan Stevens joins the show to share her experiences on staff in the 90s and on staff last summer at the Welcome Center.  She describes the Welcome Center as "Philmont's Front Porch."  It's where all crews begin their Philmont journey, and hence makes an important first impression.  It's also a place where Welcome center staff can work hard and be able to relax enough to realize that its a good thing to not always be busy or hurried.  That you in fact can sit and watch the world go by.Episode Sponsor: Tom MunchPhilmont Experience1990 - Ranger / Rayado / Mountain Trek / Rent-A-Ranger1991 - Training Ranger1992 - CD Dan Beard1993 - CD Crooked CreekNotable Mentions:Steve HoodJenny McMannCindy WerhaneTerri HeimernJohn and Jenny CraigBuddy MorseBryce StevensEllwyn StevensTim RosseisenNick BlissTom MunchSupport the show
