I am still around but lurking more because I'm on a run that turns around in 4 hours time instead of 1-10 days. Slack time has been in short supply for a long time now. Even getting resupplied regularly is a problem with this run. We ran out of potable water yesterday morning but resupplied late last night.
I did post an AAR from my last backpacking/camping (7 miles in) trip and will be doing a 3 day 20 mile backpacking/camping trip in February. The last trip had a felloe who wanted to go and then he backed out when he found out a retarded, I mean, RETIRED Military Type was coming. I'll see if he backs out of this next trip also.
During my time off in March, I and my wife will be heading to Missouri to visit an old shipmate and have one last 3 day drunken visit together, if his health is still up to 1 last blow out, before he will be crossing over the bar, probably later this year.
I am still keeping track of all things that I can and trying to spot trends, which haven't been very positive looking.
It's getting time to have another "meeting of the minds" soon Blast and ClarkTx!!!
Big Ben has relocated and has been running hard mixed in with some comms problems as well associated with his new location. Stu has been on the road making some visits, keeping promises. He's not been entirely well as of late either, but he's hanging in there!!!
