Was out fishing in southern NH today and saw this guy eating a frog, anybody know what kind of snake it is? Snake

I started using Aqua Mira a long time ago and still think it is a great option. I do still filter on a select trips depending on water source using a small filter like the sawyer.

One thing I would caution against is strenuous constant exercise. Some hikes like you are doing now are great, but don't push it in the first year. Their growth plates are still growing and you don't want to risk long term damage just to get a few extra miles in the first year. If you are...

Yes, I should probably sign up for a PayPal account sometime....

I think if you sign up to have a Tanga account, it is $1 cheaper...probably not worth it though. I also generate a Virtual Account Number for the credit card. If you guys haven't tried it, you should. It is a great system for online shopping when you don't know the site well!

Jay, I unfortunately do not have any experience with the Discovery boots, but I have been wearing Asolo FSN 95 boots pretty much since I started hiking. They were the first boot that fit my feet after trying many pairs and I have replaced them with new boots as needed (my current pair is worn...

Nevermind....I found it after another extensive search. The place I was looking for was Alec's shoes in Nashua. -JR
