Abbey

Abbey grabbed my attention right away as a reader. He uses a weird dry sense of humor such as I like my job, and I might even say munificent pay at 1.95 per hour. Abbey then goes on to say that the joy of nature is his incentive for what he does. I think the point that Edward was trying to make was that even though people create large National Parks and think of these places and natural untouched preserves, there is still a touch of grey to every park brought by tourism and industrialism. Edward wants to bring attention to the public that there not yet ruining nature at any means to this extent, but to bring awareness to the point that near future destruction could happen.
