Friday Notes, on a Friday!!

Just got back from a company trip to Florida – yes, I can hear all the sobs out there.  Well – it WAS really crappy, cold, windy weather.  But I managed to get out and fish for an hour and a half, and actually caught a big snook.  (Well – big for me).  But enough [...]

Friday Notes, on a Saturday

Well, I know it sounds like a broken record, but we’re both buried.  Again.  Rebecca is out of town working daybreak til dark on a project.  I just got back from SHOT and have numerous meetings and travel looming on the horizon.  Still – no excuses. I am planning to re-start the Wednesday Gear Review [...]

Thing One: Watch your snail mail all you recent winners. I got a fantastic surprise in the mail from AVEX yesterday, the Brazos Autoseal Water Bottle and the  Autoseal Insulated Travel Mug. Normally I don’t get such perks in the mail, so this rare occasion has me pretty excited. Big thanks and a shout out to AVEX [...]

Abu Garcia Fun over at Northern Main Ridge Runners and River Rats

Happenings around the Outdoor Blogger Network and Outdoor Community:  First off, as some of you may have experienced over the last 2 weeks, the OBN has been intermittently down, throwing 500 server errors and being cantankerous.
