    Knowing the characteristics of the water

    Well this is probably way underrated, but I would hope that people learn this pretty quickly, as I am sure they do if they are on the water a lot. Of course this is easier said than done because with rivers things can change pretty quickly, especially when close to larger bodies.

    Overnight on a boat

    I think that seeing that giant image of Jaws would just solidify my knowing that I could not do it. Even if you told me that sharks were extinct and it was nothing but goldfish, I would still worry about getting eaten.

    White Moose Discovered

    Something feels a little manufactured here, but I hope that this is true, and that is truly something that I wish I could see. Even if it were verified and confirmed I still might have to see it to believe it.

    Catching shrimps with socks

    Well I do not have the slightest of clues how this one came about or how it may work, but I would be impressed with anyone who could do it. It would certainly make for some better meals than I have been used to.

    TV anchor killed by wasp stings

    This sounds like one of the worst ways to die, and I feel terrible for that person. It reminds me of the saying "death by a thousand paper cuts" but for some reason I think that this one might be worse than that.

    Restaurant on the river boat

    I have always had those sorts of fantasies of a perfect life operating something like this. I am sure there is a lot of work involved, of course, but man the rewards of being out there daily would certainly be nice.

    All river fishing trip.

    Well this just immediately makes me miss my last home. We were about ten miles away from a wonderful river that was perfect for fishing trips and canoe trips, but sure enough we had to move a few years back and now are far away from anything of the sort. I love the pictures though.

    Do You Worry About Creatures in The Water?

    I am not sure that I will ever not worry about things like this, although the more that you get out there the more you realize the risk is not really there. I am just that type of person though, who will worry just because it makes me feel more normal I guess.

    Best Way to Purify Water?

    When it comes to me being certain that things are good and not to have that feeling inside, I like to boil everything, but of course this is not really always an option. The iodine tablets have come in handy for me a lot though, although you still get a lot of floaties.

    Stove for Hot Tenting

    I cannot really say that I have been too many places where something like this would be necessary, yet anyways. I guess it is always best to know what is out there for your options though in case the opportuinty does come up.

    A Moody Lake Huron

    Well sometimes I think that I can picture a body of water being moody as a good thing, maybe from a scenery point of view. Of course it also brings its fair share of dangers and uncertainty too so it is always best to be prepared.

    Parka for any kind of weather

    I cannot say that I have ever owned a parka. I have had my fair share of big coats but now that I think about it most of them have bene pretty subpar when it comes to shielding the cold and wind. Maybe it is time to make the switch and give one of these a try, and they look warm.

    A canoe ride in the lake

    There are few things that can bring me more joy and relaxation than a good canoe trip on a calm day. This year was actually a little disappointing with how much I was actually able to get out and enjoy the water, so that just means I will be making up for it as soon as I get the chance.

    Family in Puerto Rico

    Well our thoughts are prayers are certainly going to anyone who is down there and affected by the storm. It is really sad when you hear about the reasons why aid is not getting down there when it seems so petty. I hope that things can get back to normal or as close it as soon as possible down...

    Quick Snack/meal

    Well very few things can compete with some good rice on the trail, especially if it is a longer trip and you need that full feeling. Rice and beans has always been our go to when we need to cook anything, and there are never any complaints.

    A nice afternoon

    Well those pictures alone are enough to get me excited about getting out, but it does seem like time is running out a little bit here. We had nothing but cold and rainy here for about a week but it looks nice for the next week or so.

    Trekking by the hillside

    It is a good team building activity, but at the same time can go wrong if things are not planned well. All if takes is one sour apple to really ruin it for everyone, and yes I say this from a personal experience.

    Had some friends in camp this morning.

    Well those are often the best kind of friends to see in my opinion, as long as they do not really mess with anything and keep a good distance, or are just extremely friendly which I doubt would happen. It does make you feel a little closer to the land.

    Pests in the campsite

    At least the geckos would be a little interesting, so I would have to go with those too. I am not really even sure where I could go around here to see something like a gecko, but that just make it more interesting I suppose.

    Eating snails

    Well even though there is the fancy name for it and you can get it expensive and all of that, I still get a little sick just thinking about it, but at the same time kind of want to try them. I bet they are decent, and I just need to get over the sensation.
