My wife got all (ok, most) of her knives at Cutlery Corner [tv shopping]. One nifty pair was made into earrings! Yes, they were working knives, sharp, with one blade. On the other side was a...
I went to Active Endeavors and talked with a sales person that has hiked a lot. He uses Kuel (?) pants. I bought one and liked it a lot: lite weight, strong, quick drying (I'm a sweater): I bought 2...

Prior to that, my 'base weight' was 195# - naked on a scale: I'm trying to keep the 'pack weight' reasonable - I read reasonable is 1/4 of your weight??...
Indestructible titanium, transitions [except for snow] are not cheap but I never have to worry about breakage or sunglasses. My experience with clip-ons-they left a permanent 'smudge' where they...
Ha! Yes. Just don't bump into me when I'm stooped over looking at something :) ....
Also, I tend to look a clouds a lot - hopefully when I'm NOT near a cliff or some other open air space.

I bought the two volume Hiking the Appalachian Trail last year. This year I've begun reading through some of the stories.
So far, Mr. Konopa's adventure stands out for his use of the English...
