Sad day
I debated for hours wether or not to post this but decided to get it out. My father-in -law died unexpectedly this morning. He was found by my wife's mother on the bathroom floor. 57 years old, he and I where very close, we deer hunted, camped, BBQed..... I cried most of the morning but have pulled it together enough to arrange a family meal for this evening.
I'm sorry for being a downer but feel I needed to get it out. Thanks for listening to my wine.

I'm no suture for my future.

I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.

Re: Sad day
There really are no right words to express my sympathy and condolences to you and your family. When I've experienced similar circumstances, I've found nature provides the best healing together with the love of the family.
I don’t need a goal destination. I need a destination that meets my goals.
