Godspeed to the travelers. I hope it is challenging but not life threatening. I'm a big Stan Rogers fan, singing along to NWP and others. A sad day when his plane went down.

The web yoke for the Mohawks I have are for the shoulders.

Is this the sailing trip and they get involved with espionage?

I had a weeklong paddling trip in Sweden in an area that turned out resembling the Canadian Shield. Did a day trip in France on the Gardon River, ending at the Pont du Gard, which I found quite impressive. A walk into the back country around the area unintentionally brought us to remains of the...
