Somehow, when you grind good hominy into grits, the flavor is ground away. You guys below the M-D are welcome to my share. I will stick to cream of wheat, thankyou. Jon (how did this thread get from 'Overnight on Lake Verret" to grits?)

A large company, feeling it was time for a shakeup, hired a new CEO. The new boss was determined to rid the company of all slackers. On a tour of the facilities, the CEO noticed a guy leaning on a wall. The room was full of workers and he wanted to let them know that he meant business. He...

Readin' this thread reminded me of something Terry Bradshaw said about sushi, "...down home we call that bait!"

Many of us northerners are here by choice (believe it or not) and actually do love the snow and the varied fun activities it provides. That said, I must say that I don't like shoveling snow, that's why I have a gigundous snow blower :D :D BTW we still have plenty of snow, think I'll go...

Clarion Been there-done that. I do like the Clarion but having spent my "formative paddling years" growing up on the Allegheny, that's were my heart is. I'm not knockin' the lack of wilderness. In fact, as a 'mature' adult, it's somewhat reassuring to know that help, if needed, isn't that...

They're all good!!! A short trip is better than no trip. Since my paddlin' pals have jobs (WORK is a 4 letter word), I usually settle for 3 day/2 nite river trips. Back in the days when Grandma would go, we'd spend 7 or 8 days backcountry, but that was before she was even Mom. She quit...

Not a problem, I was just trying to keep someone from giving me a 500 page doctoral disertation. I understand SOF and have beening checking plans since I will have a lot of time on my hands after 4/22/08 :mrgreen: I've seen many references to the S&G and didn't have a clue... :oops...

If'n I had one I would. I looked on line where I ordered it (Sportsmans Guide) but they don't carry it anymore. I'll ask my son to take some pictures with his digital camera (I'm technically challenged :oops: ). BTW, having just read the Hennessy thread, SG is selling the Hennessy...

Will someone please, in 30 words or less, explain S & G. I'm assuming it's totally different than SOF. Thanks guys.

Looks HUGE for a bivy Mine has more heigth at the foot but less at the head, I can barely sit upright without touching the top. There seems to be enough tension in the entire tent that I haven't had problems with it coming in on me. The positives: it's side entry, unzip the full-side screen...

Camp fire Our campfires are primarly for atmoshere, occassionally for warmth or to dry out wet gear/clothing. About the only fire cooking I do anymore is when I use the dutch oven. Usually it's the pocket rocket and an alcohol stove. On those rare trips that we don't find an established...

Regarding sushi, Terry Bradshaw said, "...down home, we call that bait!"

Add it... or sip it? :P

strike anywhere matches Hard to find in this part of the country :( . One time I thought I was buying them, they were labeled as kitchen matches. I didn't pay any attention to them until I was packing for a trip and realized they were just large wooden matches, strike on the box only. Now...
