One of the places I hiked last year had warnings about Alligators. It made the whole hike VERY stressful. It didn't help that a storm was moving in and the sun was setting. A nice muddy, marshy hike. I kept looking for eyes staring at me :eyebrow:

It wouldn't be my first choice of a place to hike, but I could see myself getting into it. Trudging through and endless marsh.

It was a rainy time. I don't know if it's usually that muddy. My boots sunk a couple times. I thought I was going to lose it once. If I had been wearing my tennis shoes, I definitely would have!

I'll have to see if I can find a picture that does it justice

Been a wet year up and down the East Coast.
If you find yourself headed for a waterfall...

No trees to string up your hammock or rain fly?

I've seen bad reviews for that. Like, there's not a lot of room between you and the car. I thought about getting one initially.

Close is fine just roll the window down with the A/C on.;)

When you're camping you might have to retain your site or picnic table by arm wrestling for it. This is my can't lose system. ;)

Re: Step #2



Heh, can you imagine if someone made a movie based on a single arm-wrestling move?

Doesn't look all that different 100 years ago.

Playing with fire...

No bugs, no smoke choking, no weather worries, no noisy or nosey neighbors, going in style...

Do you hate the stressed out holiday season? Get away, leave the Maalox behind, go camping.

First rain and 29 degrees. Maybe next year.
That's a nice collection though.

One got repeated but it's the portable bar so acceptable. :blush:
