I got a real game for you, learned it at my son's wedding...horse shoe posts with a 5' section of 1" PVC slid over them, a beer bottle balanced on each pipe, two person team with both on the same end...and must have a beer in one hand...the opponent…

I might have been able to do that in high school, but no way now.
Only 6 weeks until I hike up to Garfield and then Galehead hut. Only two weeks and two days more of school, and then plan to really increase my daily miles including up to a week on the Ozark Highlands Trail.
Did an overnight float on the Etowah River this weekend, saw the usual water birds and their young, also saw several eagles, osprey...the highlight for me was watching a litter of young river otters feed on a large striper that was pulled up on a log,…

Playing isn't that bad,…

For years now my wife Kathy and I have been using a Rainshadow tent by Tarptent and are very happy with it.
In preparation for this summer's AT section hike I decided to patch the 1 inch cut in the floor.
I ordered a yard of silnylon to make the patches and bought a tube of clear, 100% silicone sealer.
I used 2 tools to apply the patches, a plastic squeegee and a small, hardwood roller.
Instead of working on the floor I decided to bring the area of the tent floor up to work on a small table.
The first step was to cover the table top with waxed paper so nothing would stick to it.
Then I put the floor of the tent on the table so I had easy access to the area with the cut.
I decided to work the inside of the tent first so I cut a circular patch about 6 inches in diameter.
Next I covered one side of the patch with a generous coat of the silicone sealer and put it down centered around the cut I was patching.
Then I used the squeegee to work the excess sealer out. I'd hold the patch in…

On February 27th, 28th and 29th I did a two night out and back trip from Wolf Pit Road trail-head to Table Rock mountain and back. In typical cafe fashion I planned this trip while driving 80 mph east on I-40 heading back from the Smokies. I stopped at a McDonald's to borrow some free Wifi to get a picture of a the trails and away I went. Going up Wolf Pit road in my 2002 Honda Accord was risky with the amount of ice and snow on the road. The final hill going down to the…
On February 25th and 26th I did a nice loop in the Smokies from Big Creek Ranger Station parking lot to Deep Gap along the AT south of Mt. Cammerer fire tower. There was about 6 to 8 inches of snow while going up. I stealth camped due to the amount of snow coming in and the next day went down the Big Creek trail. Overnight there was another 6 to 8 inches of snow and freezing fog.
Nestle Nido and Breakfast Essential Based Milkshakes
Nestle Nido is a full fat powdered milk which when combined with water makes a high calorie milk. I add Nestle Carnation Breakfast Essentials to add flavor and additional calories.
