Ted always admired the majesty of the mountains, perhaps it was because of where he grew up, the rolling hills of Western Pennsylvania was a sight Ted had not seen in a few years, aside from his occasional visits in the holodeck, so any opportunity to see a place even close to home was difficult to pass up. Ted stood on the peak of a cliff that overlooked the hills of this planet, and he noted that these mountains were far more impressive than those he was familiar with back home.
This was sort of out of character for Ted, going out on shore leave alone that is. It wasn't that he was afraid of the unknown, but he just typically didn’t like to go on these excursions without someone to share the experience with. He was typically a pretty social person, but his time on the Talon has been brief, so brief in fact that he only had the opportunity to meet few acquaintances but had yet to make any friends, so this trip would be a lonely one. Perhaps it was his own fault, at one time Ted would have almost certainly scouted out the hot spots on shore leave and found friends there, but after his experience on his prior vessel, he may have become more reserved. That being said there was still a part of him nagging him to return to town and make some new friends, but he was here now and it was just too difficult not to take in the view, especially after the long hike it took to reach his current location. Still, Ted couldn’t help but hope a like-minded shipmate was also out here in the mountains.
