Second solo trip to the backcountry! What did you think I meant? This one was fantastic. Not that the last time wasn’t, but it was definitely much better. The weather was perfect, especially on the days I was paddling the kayak. Even the thunderstorm waited patiently for me to set up the tent and the… Continue reading Number 2 in the woods
Safety first!
Anyone who knows me knows I’m a big advocate of pfd’s… heck any safety measures depending on what you’re doing. I even wear climbing gear when I climb certain trees 😊 I know some people laugh at the idea and I guess to each their own, but admittedly I’m not very comfortable paddling with folks… Continue reading Safety first!

Instead I wanted to tackle a project that was inspired by another blogger.… Continue reading I’m the firestarter

But I have to admit, it bugs me. It really really bugs me. You see, I’d intended to talk about some… Continue reading I need a new name
Backcountry vs. Car camping
I wanted to check and see if I could add a video just for kicks. I’m really not much of a writer, but I could certainly chat on video for a while. (Maybe that’s because I talk to myself a lot?) (I love those Bluetooth cell phone attachments that let you get away with talking… Continue reading Backcountry vs. Car camping
