eyebp,
We need to figure out a time/place for a trip.  How do you feel about nights in the low 20's?  I'm thinking Jocassee Gorges in Feb/March.

I don't like them.  :D

But this is the second winter in a row that I have told myself that I am going to get out. I even picked up some winter garb.

But I suspect I will get smacked in the face with a cold wind and wait once again for the heat of summer to put a pack on my back.

As you get older you look back at some of the decisions you make when you are younger. I just about joined the Marines with my buddy but chickened out. Boy I wish I had followed through. For all those that made the commitment, congratulations and thank you for your service.
