People come and people go on forums...and sometimes people get booted. Unfortunately not everyone who gets kicked off actually deserves it, their only sin was crossing an very grumpy ex-moderator <C.ough...K.ough>.

We're still in touch and managed to spend the weekend camping together even though he's in Chicago and I'm in Houston. Luckily central Texas is about half-way between us.  Good times. -Blast More pics:  IMG_1019 by merriwether, on Flickr  IMG_0999 by merriwether, on Flickr  IMG_0998 by merriwether, on Flickr  IMG_0982 by merriwether, on Flickr

I still miss Old Bald Guy. I hope his soul is full of joy.

He's moved on to several other forums (BushcraftUSA and Zombie Squad, plus a few others). He does swing by ETS several times a month or so to check up on stuff. Maybe I can talk him into rejoining.
-Blast
Hahaha! I love ZS, used to love BUSA but I got banned, too. To this day I have no idea why and no one will tell me. For the most part I'm a pretty low key guy...I'm still at ZS but not as active as I am here.

Is there not some kind of forgiveness policy for those who "do the crime" and then "do the time" off-forum? I suppose it depends on the crime.
Great pics!!! That one tent looks kinda cramped though :-)

Blast, where were you two camping? State park? It was an AWESOME private campground called Sulfur Springs Campground. http://www.bendtexas.comThe place was stunning with three miles along the Colorado river nestled between limestone cliffs filled with caves, springs, and plants. -Blast

The wife and daughters slept in the tent, I slept outside next to it in an army bivysack + tarp. Around midnight a storm rolled through. I stayed dry but the girls got wet from touching the sides of the tent. I love my bivysack! -Blast
