Your feedback to my original post is informative. I never would have thought that even at a much younger age it is possible to get shingles. That some of you went through quite an ordeal and for others it was of lesser potency. As well as the vaccine which may not be the definite answer. I'm...

PaddlingPitt said: That seems to be the general consensus. They also say that once you have had it, they never come back. However we know a lady who has had it at least twice. Some doctors prescribe a low dose of anti-virals for life to avoid recurrences. Besides the anti-viral medication...

On day 2 which was also lake #2 I started to feel the sting of an insect bite on my right belt line. After supper I had a good look with my compass mirror and it looked like I had multiple bites. Sleeping the night was not too bad. The next day another portage (another lake) and things were...

Hi Robin, Nice to see you out and exploring your new State. I will get in touch soon. Gerald

Très bien. J'ai beaucoup aimer. Merci d'avoir partager. G.

Mec Lightield 4season tent on Thelon River 2004. Great tent. This tent belongs to a younger man now who I'm sure will put it to good use.

Good luck with the move Robin. I have genealogical roots in northern Maine which is probably the one state I'd be comfortable to live in. Some of Maine's wilderness reminds me of home. Enjoy the grand kids and being close to family. Once you are settled in and comfy and a trip to LV crosses your...

Thanks Glenn, I noticed the Nemo's and they are available up here in Canada. Will have a look. G.

Thanks to those who have replied. I also had Timberlines 2 and 4. The children inherited them when they decided to go camping with their friends instead of their parents. It's sad about the MEC's present quality of their house brand tents. There was a time when their tents were top notch. Had a...

Yc have a good summer and be safe. G.

Hi YC, right now I'd rather wait awhile. Even if the season is dry we have a lot of black flies this year. Mid August should be great with less people than usual. G.

Thanks YC. Yes the MSR did have a good rep for leak resistance right out of the factory. We here we do not have the same selection of tents to chose from as you people down there. My problem is that the credit Mec gave me has to be used in a Mec store or Mec online. The Mec selection of tents...

Just brought a 2 year old Mec tent back for a credit. Seams were coming apart. Now I'm looking for a 3 person 3 season tent in the $300.00 - $400.00 CDN range. Mec sell a lot of MSR tents but most reviews say that they take in water even when new. Anyone here have a recently purchased MEC 3...

Looks real nice. Love your photos. G.
