    Just lit the egg, sitting in the sun, drinking some iced tea and reading a book.  Lazy mornings are the best.

    My parents passed me down this old farm bell from my grandparents farm in Illinois and I finally got around to cleaning it up and getting it hung.

    I really like nostalgic stuff such as that.

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.

    Getting ready to do a little camping. Backpacking South Mountains State Park this weekend. No egging until Sunday. Here's a shot of my trailer:

    Looks like a new Osprey. I have one. BADASS bags my friend. Is it new? I carry 38L for 2-3 dayers. I have an UL EF Kelty K2 for weekers.
    @YukonRon, actually it's a 2011 model with about 200 miles on it. Great pack! My son has an Osprey Atmos 65 which is also a really sweet pack. Much lighter than my Aether. Both packs are beast, will stand up to anything. Only issue we've had is we both had 3L bladders and his sprang a leak while we were in Philmont. Since we bought the bladder at REI, they took it back, no questions asked. 

    BTW, it was a hot and humid weekend for hiking. All up hills the first 2 days and all down today. The down hurts worse than the up with these old knees!

    Finished rewiring the boat, adding some new electronics.  Everything works now (boat was a salvage - sank).

    Went out Sat morning, launched at Myrtle Grove Marina around port Sulfur.   Tore up reds, almost maxed out and they were good sized 


    Hell of a salvage Cary!  Love that!

    I carry a platypus and a couple nalgenes. Mine has space for a bladder, and I will use it on a day hike occasionally. But the plat 4L gets it done in 20 mins.
    That pack looks great. Mine is about 5 years old and looks great, has about the same linear as you. Osprey is just the best pack and lifetime warranty.
    I totally understand the issues on stepping down. Takes me twice the amount time descent than the path up. 
    Have fun, stay hydrated, dont forget the 'Lytes.

    Did some BBRs today, low and slow. Served up the last of the sauce you had sent to me. My Beautiful Wife is totally spoiled now, she loves carolina mustard sauce. Just wanted to thank you again. I am learning so much. Great on everything.
