Yes my wife said Canadians are very polite. I sat and studied on that for some time and come to this conclusion. There is so much vast country side in Canada, and most is scarcely populated. It is some beautiful country that has severe winters and hoards of mosquitos that await to drain you of...

There is even an app that you can download for finding star constellations. You just point the camera part of the phone toward the constellation, and it will show the star names and constellation. We downloaded one while out in the boat late one night. It was pretty cool laying in the boat...

I know this was discussed before, but I was at a huge knife store and was looking real hard at the smaller multi-tool that have pliers, scissors and blade. I liked the micro ones with a clip cause I realy don't wear belts very often but would I use it or would it sit in my closet with the...

That's nice as long as the seeds are indigenous to the area. Good way to be.

I have been fortunate that no one has stolen anything from my camp sites. I do check them out before hand. If I think I will be uncomfortable with the surroundings I will go somewhere else. @Bibsoutdoors, maybe the bear thought you were a burito all rolled up in that hammock.

I like my mobile GPS better than my wife giving directions, it does yell at me when I make a wrong turn.

The only wolves I've seen were behind a fence. They looked like big ole puppy dogs.

I don't worry about bears or coyotes. They tend to avoid humans, we taste bad. Coyotes eat a lot of rodents like mice, rats, squirrels and I guess beavers. I never realy thought about my totem being a rodent,,, hmm maybe I need a new totem. A rodent?

Yeh them things are yuck. I hate when they get between your toes and latch on. Eeww. I have heard walleye fish love em.

I have been trying to get my things together for next week's camping trip, but my job has taken my time up for this past week. Now the 12 hr days are over, so this is the time to get serious. I have created a simple power pack for my cell phone booster 2- 6 volt batteries in series gives me...

I have and do use my GPS on my cell phone, but I don't depend on it because I could loose the signal. I was fishing on my local lake one morning, and while running down the lake I went into a fog bank. I thought it was realy cool how the fog looked like a solid wall as I got to it, I might have...

I couldn't agree more ND. 7 more days for me and I'll be camping on an island cooking fresh fish over an open fire. Oh the anticipation.

Welcome @Camper Andrew, we glad to have you. This is a great site to learn new things about equipment, places or ideas. You don't have to be an extremist outdoors person, I sure ain't, as long as there is a little flicker in side of you is all that matters.

I need to get the book. I have 2 hammocks. My first was single grand trunk, and the other is an Enos Double rest. It's hard to find literature on hammock hanging. Thanks for book insight, @Bibsoutdoors

I carry a 2 inch rough rider. I think case makes them. I thought about getting a good sheathed fixed blade, but I don't wear a belt and most times I only wear shorts especially during the summer. Maybe I need a garter belt with a big buck knife stuck in it of course imagine this smooth sexy leg...

Wow ND having a yard sale! The local camping stores might as well close their doors on that day.

People in these parts were raised on soup beans (pintos) and cornbread. The pinto beans can be dried and kept for years. Then they are soaked overnight, drained and looked over to remove bad beans. They say to drain the water off and that will relieve the gas you may get from them. After boiling...

Sorry I sort went a little over on that last one.

Dad always had a little jingle he would say, he grew up in west tn. Here's how it goes: beans beans the magical food the more you eat the more you poot. The more you poot the better you feel, so eat beans with every meal. Ha I never thought I'd be writing that down. I need to teach that to my...

Hey hey better watch out for the tooting stuff. Peeyou
