3:47 – You have to be more calculated, …I call it being pointed but polite
10:17 – not being able to walk was a difficulty until a friend said, “You have a Ford truck, it has four-wheel drive, what are you waiting for?”
13:07 – it’s very tiring having people look at you and what you can’t do, they were looking at me in my truck and seeing what I could do, and that’s a very big difference
18:50 – when people talk about off-roaders, it really upsets me because they’re mischaracterizing our generosity
28:42 – …there are a lot of states like Nevada and Utah that didn’t go through the process, their areas are more at risk
35:07 – this is policy, not politics
49:21 – why wasn’t there access to the Cleveland National Forest for Riverside County? Everyone forgot.
59:24 – if you’re constantly saying not o everything, you end up getting excluded from the table; being at the table is key
